Responsibility
(as presented to the Paula Derocher's 2nd grade class at Woods School)
Read The Lorax
Questions:
*If you were given the last seed, do you have a responsibility? What would you do?
- What if you are the Once-ler? Can you make money without ruining everything?
- What kind of responsibility does the Once-ler have to the Barbaloots, the Swomeeswans, and the humming fish?
Lecture:
Can we be responsible for everything? One way to feel like you're taking responsibility with out spending every day fixing everything = picking up one piece of trash. If everyone in the room did that, at one park, we'd probably pick up most of the trash there.
