Kindergarten rules and good citizen videos

Quick answer

In kindergarten, children learn why families, classrooms and communities have rules, and how sharing, taking turns and being fair help everyone. Start with Kids Academy's "Good Citizenship & Social Skills for Kids", sing Harry Kindergarten's "The Rules of the Classroom", then talk about fairness with Khan Academy Kids. Use Repeat one on any song.

What should a kindergartner be able to do after this unit?

Most children can explain why a rule keeps people safe or makes things fair, name rules at home and school, and give examples of being a good citizen like sharing and helping. Grade levels vary by country and school; kindergarten here means ages 5–6.

How can RepeatWatch help with this unit?

Choose Repeat one on a classroom rules song so it becomes a routine. Drag A and B around one example to pause and talk, slow it to 0.75×, save lesson parts on keys 1–9 and use Stop after N loops.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a rule and a law?

A rule is set by a family, class or group, like raising your hand to speak. A law is a rule for a whole town or country that everyone must follow. Learn Bright's "Laws and Rules for Kids" explains this simply.

Are some videos better for older children?

Yes. Learn Bright's rights and responsibilities lesson and the Colonial Williamsburg citizenship clips suit kindergarten through 2nd grade (ages 5–8). The songs and Sesame Street episodes are the easiest place to start.
