Our lives are molded by rules. Wherever we live, whether at home,

neighbourhood, or school. What are rules actually? A rule tells us what to

do and what not to do. Creating and following rules let us understand

what is expected from us and that inappropriate conduct hasconsequences. ules are also guidelines for actions and for the evaluation

of actions in terms of good and bad, or right and wrong, and therefore a

part of moral or values education in school.

Well, there are two di!erent "inds of rules, namely the written rule and

the unwritten rule.

 #he written rule means rule or regulation that people have written and

agreed together. #hese are rules that are presented to us in plain sight.

 #he unwritten rule means the rule or regulation that is not written but

people have agreed and must obey it. #he unwritten rules have actually

been taught by parents or society at large, most of which establish criteria

for considerate behavior that is appropriate in given situations. #he

unwritten rules may also be called as the hidden rules$ unspo"en rules. 

What written rules and unwritten rules do you follow at your home, your

school, and your neighbourhood? Can you thin" about it?

RULES IN OUR LI+ES

Rules t our #o$$unit,

When we are in our community, we need rules to bind us as a member of 

society. We become

productive members of 

society because of how we

are raised and taught to

follow rules. A society without

an agreed%upon code of 

conduct would be li"e football without rules or a referee.

A prosperous society is possible only when each individual is, by rule of 

law, protected from force imposed by others. ules such as &we own it&

prevent people from forcing their fantasyonto others. When &we own it,& each

individual is responsible for his share of 

&ownership.&

'very school has its own rules. We usually call it as regulation or dicipline.

'very students should be aware of the school rules and obey it. What are

school rules actually? (chool rules are the standards of behaviour the

school expects of its students. Why do we

need to have school rules?

what the school considers important

responsibilities

the school, such as an e!ective teaching and learning environment,
