The teacher will read the story THE COUNTRY WITHOUT RULES “Would you like to live like you want without having to obey anyone, without respecting any prohibition, doing everything you like? (…) Allegropoli is a rather particular country: its citizens do not respect the rules, because they do not like the rules: they find them annoying. (…) Mr. Zozzoni is walking with his dog on a leash. Boby poops on the sidewalk, but Mr. Zozzoni does not want to bend down to pick it up, although the Mayor has put around the signs ordering it, with bags and pallets. Dr. Irritati does not notice and puts a foot on it … “(story taken from THE RULES TOLD TO CHILDREN by G.Colombo & M.Morpurgo, Edizioni Feltrinelli Kids) The teacher will ask the pupils what are the places where they can be together (family, school, …) and will focus on family first asking the question ” what should be done in order to make family work?”. The teacher will then focus the pupils’ attention on school and will ask the question: what should be done to make school work well? At this point the teacher will focus the discussion on the class, asking the pupils to think of what could be done to make their class work well. Once the need to assume small responsibilities for class management has emerged, the pupils will be encouraged to find activities to which everyone will have to commit (shared and individual tasks) to manage activities. For each assignment the tasks will be identified and a poster will be created (see proposal below)
