Greet students and say: 'Today we will talk about how people make choices when they do not have everything they want.' Show the picture cards and briefly name them.

Listen, repeat the names of items, and point to items that are familiar.

Explain in simple terms that during World War I, some families and soldiers had to save and share because items like food, cloth, and supplies were not always easy to get. Keep language calm and age-appropriate. Ask: 'Is food a need or a want?' 'Is a toy a need or a want?'

Answer with help, say 'need' or 'want,' and give thumbs up for a good choice.

Place the basket of picture cards on the floor or table. Hold up each card and ask students to help sort it into 'Needs' or 'Wants' on the board. If needed, guide them with clues such as 'We need this every day' or 'We like this, but we can live without it.'

Take turns naming items and helping place cards into the correct group.

Present two simple scenarios: 'There is one blanket for two people. What can they do?' and 'There are only a few apples. Should we eat all at once or save some?' Reinforce the ideas of share and save.

Offer responses by speaking, pointing, or acting out sharing and saving.

Call out a word and have students do a motion: 'need' = hands on heart, 'want' = hands on head, 'share' = open arms, 'save' = hands close together. Repeat the words once or twice.

Copy motions and say the words aloud.

Review: 'People make choices every day. Needs are important. Wants are things we would like. Sometimes people must share and save when there is not enough.'

Repeat key words and listen to the summary.
