The VHS-broadcast
program, "Welcome
to Youville", serves
as an instructional model
for classroom or home
assignment. It demonstrates
three second-grade classrooms
from Macomb, Oakland,
and Wayne counties at
work using their imaginations
to construct a community!
See them reach understanding
before your eyes!
This entertaining and informative program
provides teachers, parents, and other educators
with a guide to enhancing Social Studies,
English Language Arts, and other Critical
Thinking paths. Students are better able
to understand the subject matter by viewing
others at their level solving the question
"What makes a community?" |

program is presented in four parts
that address:

needs in a community:
Food -

decide what food resources their
communities need.
Shelter

decide what type of housing meets
the needs of the communities they
create.
Fun -
Students
create their own interpretation
of recreation.
Safety

where they go for help. |
