One example of good citizenship is saving water.When ever we don't need it we don't have it on.When we take a shower we have the water on but when we are using the shampoo we don't have it on.Our neighbors only water once every two weeks and some even water their plants.Only rarely we sometimes use a lot of water.

There are many ways to be a good citizen in your community! You can do your part and help stop littering. If you see someone littering, please give them a friendly reminder. This can keep your community clean. Another way you can help out in your community is by recycling. There should be local recycling centers by your neighborhood. Try to encourage other people to recycle as well! These are two of the most simplest ways to be a good citizen. Try doing these things in your community. Why not start now?

We should help the animals in need no person or animal should be in the street. Some people don't care about them,but i do care i have 2 dogs at home and I take care of them i give them love,food,water and a great home. We should make ever dog or cat happy by helping them. i love dogs and cats because they can make every child,baby,teen or adult happy.Some people don't likes dogs only when they are puppies,but we can put an end to this by putting them in a shelter

People around my communite should pick up trash and get to know each other. We should recycle to clean up the bottles on the streets. Me and my family recycle plastic, bottles, and cans on the floor. The kids around Los Angels shold help the elderly with their everyday routine. I help my mom with the food because i dont want her to carry everything and me just standing there. We should all work together and keep it clean.

A good example of good citizenship is by helping people stop littering. One other good example is picking up trash around your community. A other good thing we can do is recycle, plastic bottles, cans, glass bottles too. A other good way of citizenship is by saving water but don't forget to water your plants. A way to save water is maybe taking small baths or showers or turn off water when putting on shampoo then turn it back on to rinse off the shampoo.

Rome's act helped our community because Rome came up with most of the buildings and stuff we have today. Rome's act benefits our community because we have entertainment, voting, helping, and that's how Rome helped us. What I could do for my community is go to the beach and clean up trash or helping the poor. Another thing I could do in my community is help where help is needed, help stop bullying, and help recycle. There are so many things we can do to make our community a better place.

A act of good citizenship is when you clean up your community. Another act of good citizenship is when you care for the people in your community. One other way we can help our community is to volunteer and do helpful stuff for our community. Another act of a strong sense of citizenship is when you not only care for your people, you care for society and you try as much as you can to make it better. I would probably donate money to our community to fix anything in need of fixing and to fix our schools and to give our schools more educational stuff to help them more.

In my community we try to make a good act of benefit by saving water and by recycling cans , bottles ,and paper . Saving water is a good act of benefit because right now we are on a drought so if we save water we will have water when we need it . In addition recycling is a good act of benefit because instead of the bottles just being thrown away in the trash we can recycle then and they can become something useful . There are many more things my community can do to become good citizens and I am positive we can accomplish them if we work together .

In Rome a lot of Romans had a strong sense of citizenship, or a commitment to helping each other and society. A way I would help out my community would be by saving water and recycling. I would also try to help keep the streets clean. In the United States we have sporting events which were inspired by the Romans. The Romans left a big legacy, mostly being citizenship. In my community I would try to help out as much as I can. Examples of good citizenship in the United States includes citizen participation in voting and activities that benefit all of society like keeping the environment clean for a healthier community for people to enjoy.

A good citizenship is when you help your community.For example if you want to help your community you could clean up the trash in the streets.Also if there is a BIG tree that branches always fall in the car's and brakes the windows your community could call someone so they could put it down .If in your community there is people that go to your backyard and rob your stuff you could put camera's all over so you could catch the rober and also so you and your family could feel more save.Your community could recycle and waste less water.Especially in the USA because right now we are in a drought.We could water our plants in the night,wash our cars in the night,and wash our clothes in the night.If we help all over the world we could have a better community.

A good example of citizenship where i live is when my neighborhood cleans the streets to make it clean because there is too much pollution. Another good act of citizenship where I live is when my family saves water.we save water because there is a big drought in the state of California. We also recycle cans and water bottles. We all need to help each other out to make California a better community

Many examples of positive citizenship vary in my community.For instance, picking up after ourselves and throwing away trash in the appropriate areas helps prevent littering.This act benefits my community by keeping it clean and avoiding it to spread towards places that have a large population, such as the beach.One reason why garbage near shore would be dangerous would be that sea animals could mistake plastic bags and other items for food and would be harmed.Another act of good citizenship would be avoiding transportation that release gas as much as possible, this would prevent releasing pollution into the air and avoiding it to build up overtime and create an unhealthy environment.Our community changes every second either for good or for bad, that's why even the simplest act of good citizenship can create a stronger and healthier neighborhood.

Today we have many laws,citizenship, and architecture that are involded with the Roman Empire. Also believe it or not 11/8/2015 12:15:57 pm
The citizenship that my community has it's that we help each other out. Sometimes after theirs a lot of wind or harsh weather we clean up the streets.Then one time I saw a lady help a boy carry heavy bags to his house. Even if mostly get along we still help one another to have cleaner streets. We clean after our selfs so we don't have to make other people clean up for us and that's good citizenship. With just one good act of citizenship we can make a brighter future.

One good example of good citizenship is when people pick up the trash that is thrown on the floor.Another good example of good citizenship is when people recycle.This can make a big change in our community and the world.A good citizenship where I live is when we save water because it keeps us way from having a drought.

Citizenship is very important part of our community. But not only is as it important now but also in the past. Citizenship in the past was instilled by the Roman Stoic Philosophers such as Senecca. They encouraged people to take a role in the public affairs. But nothing has changed because the idea of public duty still helps promote citizenship. For example recycling water bottles and more. Also picking up trash even if it's not yours to help clean your community.

Many of Rome's examples of good citizenship influence my community today. For example Romans had commitment to helping one another intheir society. In my you may volunteer or donate to help people in need of help. The idea of helpfulness was instilled in the Romans by the teachings of stoicism by philosphers such as Seneca. Today being helpful is none as being stoic. Being a good citizen today inthe U.S. includes voting and recycling. I think being a good citizen might include consevering water because of severe drought in California. Picking up liotered tash can also show stoicism or good citizenship. This can be helpful in my community because trash thrown on the street flow into the drains into the ocean. The Romans have instilled stoicism in our society today.

Have you ever walked around a neighborhood that was so dirty? Well I have seen one and it looked like a brand new dump. Instead of walking threw it I went home and got a giant trash bag. Then came back to clean. While I was cleaning I saw a man littering. He threw a half eaten apple to the floor. I asked,"can you pick it up please." He answered,"no" and ran. Then I picked it put and continued. These is how I show citizenship.

A good example of citizenship in my community is that we learn how to preserve water,when theirs a drought.Another thing is that we help one another when there's a problem or accident.We also recycle which helps our community a lot.Second we can vote our president so that our country can be led by a good leader.And we take responsibility for the actions we do. All these examples of citizenship benefits our country.

One good example of good citizenship besides voting and recycling is throwing out your trash when your done using it. Littering has been a big problem for our community for many years. There is not one day you see the sidewalks,schools,or even parks free from one piece of trash. By not littering you can help stop your community and schools from being filthy and unsanitary. By throwing away your trash when your done using it you can prevent killing the marine life,and other kinds of animals in different environnents.

We have gotten many ideas from the Romans. For example, citizens vote to help each other and society. As we all know, "citizenship in the United States includes voting and participating in activities that benefit all of society, such as recycling. Another great example of a good citizenship is not littering and picking up trash you might see on the ground. You might ask yourself how does this help us to be a good citizen? Well, this example helps us a lot because all the trash we throw on the streets goes into the ocean where many animals live. The animal may eat the trash or the trash/plastic can get stuck around them causing the animals to die. If everyone just did a small part by not littering and picking up trash or throwing it in a trash can, they will see that it will help a lot because the littering would not transfer into the ocean and littering would not be the reason why sea animals die. Another reason why not littering will help is when it rains, trash will not block the sewers and keep the water from flowing and prevent floods. 11/8/2015 05:31:07 pm
An example of good citizenship in the United States include voting and activities that benefit all of society,such as recycling.Good citizenship in the United States is not very common,especially in Los Angeles because a lot of people throw trash on the floor,tag on walls,and some people don't even take care of our environment.However,some people do have very good citizenship.An example of good citizenship in Los Angeles is that many people don't throw trash on the floor anymore and people reuse paper bags when they go grocery shopping because they know that using plastic bags are not helpful to our environment.In conclusion,even though Los Angeles isn't known for good citizenship,this city does have respectful people who care about our environment.

There are many ways to show good citizenship in your community. In my community people gather up as a group to clean the community and also the park ,so kids could play in a clean environment. People also gather up to share their own ideas on how they can make the community better. They also recycle ,so they can buy important thing for the community. I think working as a group is good citizens because when you work together you can accomplish many things.

An example of a good citizenship is not littering.This benefits our community by showing respect to our environment. If people litter it won't help us and animals surrounded by us. If everyone begins littering in our environment it would be a mess and will look very filthy. Lots of different animals live outside and it wouldn't be very helpful for them to live here. When people litter it ends up in the oceans,beaches,lakes,ponds,and any water mass. Littering and pollution is harmful to humans. Litter is illegal,but some don't even care. It damages crops and destroys natural areas. It can kill or injured and animals litter. As far as littering effects are concerned,it has economic,legal,and environmental impact in the form of spending millions of dollars in cleaning up litter.

Public duty benefits my community because when people recycle or clean after themselves, it will be less dirty. If we don’t clean up after ourselves our community won’t look nice and there would be lots of pollution. We also recycle because it is good for the environment. We need to try to keep out community clean. Recycling is good because bottles, cans, and plastic won’t go in the ocean ns affect the animals in ocean.

Another good example of good citizenship is that in our community we have the right to vote. Also we have laws that protects our community.Another good example of good citizenship is we gather as a group to clean parks,streets,and schools to keep our community clean. Another good example in my community there is a new law that all groceries stores must use paper bags instead of plastic bags to help our environment. Another good example in our community is that people recycle a lot. I think that as our community and society is growing we are also taking responsibility and commitment to help our environment.

Around my community there's allot of people that just littered on the floor. I tried telling my mom to say something about it to spread the word out. But she says that why bother doing it when they are going to be trash there. So I tried doing something I went around the hole blocked and picked up the trash. This neighbor saw me and she whent to go help me out and then more stared to help me out. Soon we where done cleaning the hole blocked.

A good example of my community is a group of people volunteering to paint over ugly and offensive graffiti to nice art drawing. Graffiti makes my community an ugly place. With the help of these people and their art, it makes my community look like a better and safer place. Don't ever graffiti because you could go to jail. Be responsible and take care of your community.

Good citizenship in my community is helping each other out and cleaning our streets we clean everything Saturday when the streets needs a clean or the alley which is part of the community.We cleaned the alley with neighbors because it needed cleaning so we cleaned it and now it's nice and clean .Also in my community we save water by watering the plants once a week and not to let the water running when washing dishes or taking a bath or brushing your teeth we also plant some plants of vegetable we are planting Chile's the neighbors could get any if they want some.Like we get from them like fruits so it's like a trade in that way we also save money. Their is always good citizenship in our neighborhood

In Los Angeles there is a drought and I think a good citizenship would be to save water. When you are washing dishes The best thing to do is have the water off when you put soap on the dishes then turn on the water. Another good citizenship is to not water your plants everyday. Water your plants once or twice a week so we could save water and our community. If you see a friend or neighbor wasting water give them a talk and tell them to not waste water in a friendly way. Tell them that California is in a drought and we need to help out by saving water

In my community a good example of good citizenship is if you are old enough to vote you should vote to have a part in a part in a decision. You can also join a club or civil organization. Also another example for good citizenship is that you can act in ways and increase understanding between different groups and community that will often be something you could do by volunteering. If you have issues that you care about you can contact your government or representatives .you can also go to city Council or school boards meetings. In order to be a good citizen you have to make good examples and choices for the community.

Good citizenship is an important factor to have in my community . An example of citizenship of law is that people get to choose our president , the one in charge of the nation . Yet the people also make sure that he doesn't have too much power over the nation . Another example of citizenship is that people have rights , such as the right to speak their mind especially by voting for the president. They also have laws which help the community stay safe and prevent crime . By doing so , the government created a system , that enforces the laws that protects our community , the police force . For people in my community we can vote , we have the freedom of speech which allows us to speak up , to have a voice in government , and to be protected in order to live a peaceful life.

Another example of good citizenship around where I live is being respectful.Mostly the people that I see near my house are too religious.But when its dark the people leave and the whole entire streets are lonely,and the homes where the live are lighted up.I find that citizenship nice,one time a nice lovely lady offered me a dollar so I can bye myself something in the store.I find that an example of good citizenship!

A good way to help my community is to help people out and make a difference for example I can get a group of my friends and garden for people who don't have time for it and this can help the environment because we need plants to create oxygen for everyone.also,there is also a lot of old people around my community so we should help them do the things that they can't do and make them happy. a problem around my community is also graffiti because there is so many trouble makers and gangsters out there so we should help people paint their walls on the places they tagged and it will make the place look less scary and horrible and make people want to live in my community. Picking up trash is a good way to help your community and help the environment if we pick up trash then people will do the same thing and the streets will look really clean and not covered in trash all over the place.if u do all this then people will do the same thing and everyone could help the environment and make your community the best out of all the communities.

There are many things that represent good citizenship. One example I have seen in my community of good citizenship is people picking up trash and not throwing their trash on the floor. This is good citizenship because they are keeping the community clean and neat. Which will also help keeping the community safe by there being no trash people could trip on or hurt themselves with. This is a good example how people in my community show good citizenship.

An example that I can help the community by being a good citizen is by helping the dogs get owned. The reason why I chose this is because if the dogs don't get owned the person who takes care of the place where people can buy dogs,and they kill them by putting them to sleep. That's why I'd like to help the community because then dogs will just get killed by not getting owned. Another reason why I chose this is because sometimes people don't need pets because sometimes they say that they have to buy them there food and stuff for them to play. Even big, medium, and small are seen in the street with no food or shelter because then they can die

An example of good citizenship is Helping out others. This benefits our community by showing respect to the community which we want to make a better place. Also helping out others might prevent non-violence which could help us but also the world. Something else is that helping out others can also help others keep the world clean. And people with kids could show a great influence to them and help them in to help others too. An example of helping out others is making a shelter for people that need it and with this it will be an example of citizenship
