What Does a Good Citizen Look Like?

A citizen is a member of a state, country,entire word and many other places. A good citizen is someone who respects others and their property. To be a good citizen, first we have to be a good person. We have to help other people and to care about them.

To be a good citizen of one's personal community, for example school. We have to be nice to everyone equally. We might have a person that we don't like much or sometimes we will judge people by stereotypes. A stereotype is an exaggerated belief, imagined or distorted truth about a person or group. Even if we have know a person that we don't like much or they seem to fit a stereotype, they are a good person too and everyone is not the same person. Another thing to being a good citizen in school, there will be five outcomes. Those five outcomes are personal character, community contributor, active learner, effective communicator, critical thinker, and problem solver. To share your time and skills to the community to make it better, cleaner and safer.

We can be a good citizen of one's nation too. We have to follow laws and rules of city and country. A good citizen will always follow rules, and give their voices to the government by voting. For example, a good citizen will always stop when there is a red light and cross when it is green light. Another example, learn the basics of the language of the country that yo live in. We should study the language because we got a chance to stay in that country so we should learn about that country's culture and people.

To be a good citizen of one's world, we have to care about global warming. Global warming is not a problem just for a country, so everyone in the world should care about global warming especially countries that produce lots of CO2. We can't throw trash anywhere outside the trash can. We should conserve resources by practicing the three R's; Reduce, Re-use, and Recycle. For example, when we finish drinking drinks, we should recycle cans and bottles. Also, we can try nit to consume too much things. We can bring our own bottle and try not to use paper cups often. And because of that, they will cut down trees less. We should turn off the lights, TV, water, and many other things when we are not using them.
