Topic – Road Safety.

Learning outcomes
By the end of this lesson pupils will be familiar with aspects of the Stop, Look, Listen and Think sequence. They will be able to discuss simple ways of behaving safely when near roads and traffic such as holding a grown up’s hand and finding safer places to cross the road.

Stop, Look, Listen, Think sequence
• Stop – when you approach a crossing, STOP before you come to an edge of the pavement.
• Look – LOOK for cars, bikes, lorries, other vehicles, by looking right, left and right again.
• Listen – LISTEN for vehicles too. You may be able to hear them before you see them.
• Think – is there enough time for you to cross the road safely?

Watch the video clip below. The second one is from someone special.

• Questions to ask about the video.
Can you tell me one of the things you can do to stay safer when you are on a scooter?
What did the boy do when he got in the car?
What did the girl do when she crossed the road?

Click on the links below for two activity worksheets you can also do. If you are able to print those off you can or you can discuss what you see in the picture and read the sentences or if you are feeling you need a challenge you could write some of the sentences out.

Can you use a pelican crossing

Morning P1. I hope you are all well this morning. Today’s activity is all about having some fun with capacity and measuring out liquids. The magic potion shop is running very low can you help them to restock their shelves?

magic-potion-instructions

Note to parents- Recipes are just for guidance, you can alter amounts to make them less (especially if you are using kitchen supplies), add food colouring, glitter, washing up liquid etc to make the ingredients and use anything you have to hand like cups, teaspoons etc to measure out.

Hope you have lots of fun with this.
