Dwire+Social+Sci+October+Week+1

Last week we talked about communities.

We talked about what a community is, who lives in a community, how people help the community, and what kind of things we do in our community.

What is a community? A community is a place where people live and work together.

There are lots of people in a community.

You help at home and at school. Communities have helpers too. Helpers do jobs that make the community a nice place to be. Some helpers keep us safe. Others help keep the community clean.



The police help keep our community safe.



The garbage man helps to keep our community clean.



Firemen also help to keep our community safe by putting out fires when they happen.

Why are helpers important in the community?
