The+Book+of+Rules

The Book of Rules Rules govern every social relationship of your life! Some regulations are clearly understood, written down and formally sanctioned (such as traffic laws). Other rules are much more subtle - but firmly enforced by your parents, peers and teachers. Your assignment: create a Rule Book for life. You will list the rules and sanctions for each social situation listed below. Follow the directions but use your imagination and creativity. You may need to use natural observation or interviews to complete this assignment. This project is worth 100 points and is due Friday, November 4th.
