It's time to take action! Help Emmy make a decision and implement it.


If Emmy goes home right after school, she misses out playing with her new best friend. If Emmy asks her mom if she can play at her friend's house after school, her mom may say yes. If Emmy goes to her friends house without asking her mom, she will probably get in trouble, and her mom will be upset. After predicting the consequences for each option, what is the best decision?

Question

What decision should Emmy make?

Emmy should ask her mom if she can go to her friend's house after school.

Explanation: Her mom may say yes. If her mom says no, at least Emmy has asked permission instead of going to her friend's house without asking and risking getting in trouble.

Implementing the decision is taking the steps, or action, you've decided upon. In this example, Emmy has decided to ask her mom to play at a friend's house, so she is taking the next step based on the decision she made.
