Pupils who need support: 

  • Could use the Resource: Knowledge organiser when practising vocabulary and safe/unsafe actions during the lesson.
  • Could rehearse sentence starters when explaining their responses in the Main event (e.g. ‘I think this is unsafe because’/‘I think this is safe because’).
  • Could use the Activity: Spot the danger: support, which includes a checklist of the things they are looking for during the Main event.

  • Should use sentence starters to link to others’ ideas during paired discussion in the Main event (e.g. ‘I agree with… because/I disagree with… because’).
  • Could write or draw additional objects that might be found in a home during the Activity: Spot the danger in the Main event.
  • Could explain why some items are always unsafe or only unsafe without an adult (e.g. ‘A hot kettle is safe when an adult uses it carefully but unsafe for children to touch’).
