Leadership comes in many forms.
From the most visiblepeople in our communities, like the police or the mayor to the unsung participants who make important and lasting impacts, students should be challenged to think about how leaders shape our lives with their words and actions.

For a bigger challenge, students might be asked to draw pictures using this resource and to write 4 to 6 sentences explaining their response in detail on a separate piece of lined paper, for each question on the resource page.
Scaffolding for Struggling Students
Students who are struggling with this concept might be supported by brainstorming 2 to 3 words that exemplify leadership and having them write those words at the top of their page. They will then use the words to draw pictures (instead of writing complete sentences or bullet-pointed phrases) to answer the questions listed.
