Rights and Responsibilities - Exploring What It Means to Be a Citizen

In this social studies lesson for upper elementary, students will explore the rights and responsibilities of citizens in a democracy. With the help of a civics expert, they will learn about freedoms like speech, religion, and fair trials, as well as responsibilities such as voting, staying informed, and following laws. By the end of the lesson, students will understand how citizens actively participate in their communities and why these rights and responsibilities are essential.
