Directions

Before the meeting:

Review the Scout Law and become familiar with it and how it is defined in Cub Scouting.

During the meeting:

Gather the Cub Scouts and adult partners and share with them that a long time ago in the country of England there were warriors who fought for kings and queens, but they were not ordinary warriors, knights were special because they were expected to live by a code. A knight was supposed to show bravery, strength, and skill in battle, to respect women, to defend the weak and the poor, to be generous to others and loyal to his lord, his family and his friends.
Today in England people can still become a knight but it is now a special recognition and title that can be presented to someone by the king or queen of England. Both women and men are knights. Women knights in England are referred to as dames.
Being a good Scout is like being a modern-day knight. Living and acting by the Scout Oath and Law.
Inform Cub Scouts that part of the Scout Law is to be courteous. That means that we are to be polite to everyone and always use good manners.
Have Cub Scouts work with their Adult Partner to come up with a way to act out the Cub Scout demonstrating being courteous. When Cub Scouts and adult partners are ready have each pair act out their scene.
After everyone has had a chance to act out a scene ask the Cub Scouts to look at the Scout Law and identify a part of the Scout Law that they feel a good knight must follow. Don’t have them tell it to anyone but their Adult Partner. Together the Cub Scout and Adult Partner will act out the Cub Scout demonstrating their chosen point of the Scout Law and everyone else will have to guess it.
When Cub Scouts and adult partners are ready have each pair act out their scene and see if the rest of the den can guess the right point of the Scout Law.
