ClassX Video Lessons Grade Grade 2 Learn with Ms. Lauren: ‘Responsibilities’ | Day 2 | Preschool Learning, Singing & Fun ????
Hello and welcome! Today, we’re going on a super fun learning adventure. We’ll listen to music, read a cool story, learn about a special job, and even get some exercise. Are you ready? Let’s go!
Every morning, I have a job to do. I take my dog for a walk. If I don’t wake up on time, I might miss breakfast, and I love breakfast! Being responsible means doing what you’re supposed to do. Do you have any jobs at home? Maybe you help by making your bed or feeding your pet. It’s important to be responsible because it helps everyone around us.
Let’s listen to a story about a boy who learns a big lesson. The boy is a shepherd, which means he takes care of sheep. One day, he feels bored and decides to trick the villagers by shouting “wolf” when there is no wolf. The villagers come running, but they find out it was just a joke. He does this a few times, and then, when a real wolf shows up, no one believes him. The boy learns that if you lie, people might not trust you when you’re telling the truth. He says sorry to the villagers and works hard to earn their trust back.
You can listen to this story, “The Boy Who Cried Wolf,” in the ABCMouse Library anytime you want!
Being responsible is important in different places, like at home, school, and in your town. At school, everyone should be kind and respectful. Some kids have special jobs, like being the class president.
There’s a poem called “Vote for Vera” about a girl who wants to be class president. She thinks she can make her school a better place.
I talked to Jonathan, a real class president, to learn more. He said a class president is a leader who helps and inspires others. He also has jobs at home, like washing dishes and taking out the trash. Being a leader can be fun and make you feel good!
Let’s take a break and move our bodies! It’s important to exercise and have fun.
In music class, we’re learning how to use our voices in different ways: singing, speaking, whispering, and shouting. Today, we practiced speaking a rhythm together. It was so much fun!
Now, let’s learn about Rachel Carson, a famous scientist and writer. She loved nature and wrote about how to protect it. Her book “Silent Spring” helped people understand how chemicals can hurt animals. Because of her work, the Environmental Protection Agency was created to help protect our environment.
Rachel Carson shows us that one person can make a big difference. We can all help make our world a better place by being responsible.
As we finish our adventure today, think about how you can help the world. After class, I’m going to take my dog to the park and pick up trash. What will you do?
Thanks for joining me today! I hope you had fun with our activities, puzzles, and games. Remember, the more you learn, the more you’ll love learning. See you next time!
Responsibility Chart: Create a responsibility chart at home. List down the tasks you do every day, like making your bed or feeding your pet. Use stickers or drawings to mark each task you complete. At the end of the week, see how many tasks you completed and celebrate your achievements!
Role Play “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”: Gather some friends or family members and act out the story of “The Boy Who Cried Wolf.” Take turns being the boy, the villagers, and the wolf. Discuss how the boy felt when no one believed him and why it’s important to always tell the truth.
Nature Walk with Rachel Carson: Go on a nature walk with an adult and observe the environment around you. Look for plants, animals, and insects. Talk about how you can help protect nature, just like Rachel Carson did. Maybe you can pick up litter or plant a flower to make your surroundings more beautiful.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript, removing any informal language, filler words, and personal anecdotes while maintaining the core content:

Hello and welcome back! Today, we will embark on a musical field trip, read a wonderful story, and learn about an expert’s job. We will also get some exercise.
One of my morning responsibilities is taking my dog for a walk. If I don’t wake up on time, I might skip breakfast, which I don’t want to do because I love breakfast. Being responsible can feel rewarding. Are you responsible for anything at home? Many kids help by making their beds or feeding pets. However, some kids may not take their responsibilities seriously, which can lead to negative consequences.
Miracle and Nano will share a story about a boy who does not act responsibly. The boy is a shepherd, responsible for taking care of the sheep. One day, feeling bored, he decides to trick the villagers by yelling “wolf” when there is none. The villagers come running, only to find out it was a lie. He plays this trick multiple times, and eventually, when a real wolf appears, no one believes him. The boy learns two important lessons: never call for help if you don’t need it, and if you lie, people may not believe you when you tell the truth. The boy apologizes to the villagers and works hard to regain their trust.
This story, “The Boy Who Cried Wolf,” is available in the ABCMouse Library for repeated listening.
Next, we will discuss the importance of being a responsible member of various communities, such as family, school, and town. In a school community, every student has a responsibility to be respectful and kind. Some students may have special responsibilities, like being a class president.
A poem titled “Vote for Vera” expresses a girl’s desire to be class president and lead her school. She believes she can make a positive impact.
To learn more about being a class president, I spoke with Jonathan, a real class president. He shared that a class president is an elected leader who motivates others and leads by example. He also mentioned his responsibilities at home, such as washing dishes and taking out the trash.
Being a leader can be rewarding and fulfilling. Now, let’s take a moment to get some exercise and move our bodies!
[Music and movement segment]
In music class, we are focusing on different ways to use our voices: singing, speaking, whispering, and shouting. Today, we practiced speaking a rhythm together.
Now, let’s learn about someone who made her community better: Rachel Carson, a famous scientist and writer. She wrote about nature and raised awareness about environmental issues. Her book “Silent Spring” highlighted the dangers of chemicals harming wildlife, leading to the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency.
Rachel Carson’s work shows that one person can make a significant difference. We can all contribute to making our communities and the world a better place by being responsible.
As we conclude, think about how you can help improve the world. After class, I will take my dog to the park to pick up trash.
Thank you for joining today! I hope you enjoyed our activities, puzzles, and games. Remember, the more you learn, the more you will love learning. See you tomorrow!
