Our community helpers!

Every community depends on people doing important jobs — and a school is no different. Today we notice the helpers all around us.

A community is full of helpers — people whose job is to take care of others!

Four community helpers: teacher, nurse, cafeteria worker, and crossing guard
Let’s talk
  • Who is a helper at our school you are thankful for?
  • What is a job you see grown-ups do to help keep us safe?
Try it

Thank a helper! Think of one helper at our school. Practice saying “Thank you for helping us!” with a partner — then say it for real when you see them today.

Communities work because people take on different roles and responsibilities — everyone has a part to play.

Six roles it takes to run our school
Let’s talk
  • If you had a job to help our school run, what would you choose, and why?
  • What might happen if people didn’t do their community jobs?
Try it

With a partner, list as many different jobs as you can that it takes to run our school — you have 30 seconds. Ready, set, go!
