Urban, Suburban, Rural

Let's take a closer look at the three types of communities: urban, suburban, and rural. During the video, listen for some Pros (good/positive reasons) and Cons (not good/negative reasons) of living in each type of community. Here is the video link:

Second Grade: Types of Communities

After watching the video, make a Pro/Con list for each type of community. For example, print "Rural" at the top of your paper. Now, on one side print Pro and on the other side print Con. Think of what you learned in the video that shows a good reason to live in a rural community (fresh air, space). Add these dot jots to your Pro side. Now think of the not so good reasons to live in a rural community (long distance to stores, other family members live far away). Add these dot jots to your Con side.

After you have made a Pro/Con list for the three types of communities, decide where you would want to live. Why?
