Honesty, truth and lies lesson plan KS2 PSHE

(0)
Sometimes as KS2 pupils get towards the top of the school their relationship with the truth becomes a little more…loose. In this PSHE lesson plan children get a chance to explore truth and lies and the consequences of both. It’s not about lecturing or preaching, it’s about getting them to come to their own conclusions. This lesson plan contains straight-forward instructions, full lesson plan (no pre-planning, yay!) with activity resources plus learning outcomes and self-assessment. Simples!

Managing Conflict and Disagreeing Respectfully, PSHE lesson plan KS3 KS4

(0)
Lesson plan, presentation and short script for KS3 and KS4 about disagreeing respectfully when managing conflicts on and off line and fits well with my lesson on assertiveness. The lesson plan gives students the opportunity to practise listening skills, act out a discussion that goes wrong and work through steps to disagreeing peacefully. The steps are based on mediation steps and help students develop skills to manage discussions and arguments. These skills will help in their own relationships off and on line and also contribute to English skills of debate and persuasion. Have fun with this!

All change! Six activities to help with transition from primary to secondary school

(0)
Moving up to secondary school can be an exciting but daunting time. While the children definitely feel ready to move on they may start to have wobbles as the time draws nearer to leave primary school and move from being big fish in a small pond to tiddlers in the sea of secondary school. The following activities are designed to help children work through any fears they have and to get mentally organized for the next step in their school careers. All last around 15 minutes so you can fit them in around the school day. I hope your children enjoy them. Don’t forget to leave a review. These activities were designed by the author of Making PSHE Matter (Jessica Kingsley Publishing) http://www.jkp.com/uk/making-pshe-matter-2.html

Anti-bullying week ideas sheet

(0)
Quite a few teachers have asked for some ideas for anti-bullying week so I’ve put together a lost of some simple tried and tested ideas. This isn’t a set of lesson plans but rather a springboard to get your thinking about how you could use some of the activities in your school but of course you’ll add your own flavour! As always with any PSHE-related activities it’s best to plan them as a part of a spiral programme running throughout the school but sometimes we just need a bit of a helping hand! Don’t forget to maintain that balance of knowledge, skills and understanding. Have a great anti-bullying week. Need more help?
