Leaders Help Groups Make Choices

with Justice

Justice stands at the front of a colorful classroom, holding up a big illustrated chart showing a teacher, a team captain wearing a jersey, and a smiling mayor with a ribbon, while a group of cheerful children point at the chart together.

Identify what a leader does for a group.
Name at least two examples of leaders from everyday life.
Explain how a leader helps a group decide what to do.
Compare leaders in different places, such as school and a town.

Key terms

leader: A person who helps a group decide what to do together.
mayor: The leader of a town or city who helps make important decisions.
team captain: A player who helps a sports team work together and make choices.
fair: Treating everyone in the group equally and listening to all voices.

What Leaders Do

A leader is not just the person in charge — a leader is someone who helps a group move forward together. Leaders organize, listen, and guide so that everyone knows what is happening next. Without a leader, a group can get confused or stuck because no one helps the members agree on a plan. Good leaders make groups work better for everyone.

Leaders Are Everywhere

You meet leaders in many parts of your life. In your classroom, the teacher leads the learning. On a team, the captain leads the players. In your town, the mayor leads the whole community. These leaders work in different places, but they all share the same job: helping their group decide what to do and how to do it well together.

What Makes a Good Leader

Being a leader is not about bossing people around. A good leader listens carefully to the people in the group before making a choice. They are kind, fair, and helpful, and they care about what is best for everyone, not just themselves. When a leader listens and treats people fairly, the whole group trusts them and works together better.

Worked examples

Your class cannot agree on a field trip place.

Notice that the group needs help deciding together.
Think about who helps the class make choices.
The teacher, as a leader, listens to ideas and guides the class to a decision.

Answer: The teacher acts as a leader by listening and helping the class choose together.

Your town wants to build a new park somewhere.

Decide which leader helps a whole town make big decisions.
Remember that this leader listens to many people in the community.
The mayor gathers ideas and helps the town pick a good spot.

Answer: The mayor leads the town by helping everyone decide where to build the park.

Hi, I am Justice! Today we are going to learn about leaders. A leader is a person who helps a group decide what to do. Groups need leaders so everyone knows what is happening next. Think about your classroom. Your teacher is a leader. The teacher helps your class know what to work on each day and how to follow the classroom rules. Think about a sports team. The team captain is a leader. The captain helps the team work together and make good choices during the game. Even a kid can be a leader, like a team captain who helps teammates work together! Think about your town or city. The mayor is a leader. The mayor helps the people in the whole town decide on important things, like where to build a new park. Leaders listen to the people in their group. Then they help the group make a choice. Good leaders are kind, fair, and helpful. You see leaders every day, at school, on the playground, and in your neighborhood!

Recap

A leader is a person who helps a group decide what to do, and you can find leaders in classrooms, on teams, and in towns. Good leaders listen, stay fair, and help everyone work together, and even kids can be leaders too.
