Term 1A

For our World Around Us topic this term we will be focusing on ‘Safe and Sound’.

We will be looking at many different areas within this topic including;

• People who keep us safe in our community.
• Internet safety.
• Road safety
• Safety in the home.
• How animals use camouflage to keep safe.
• Firework safety.

Here are some activities you may like to try to do at home to support your child’s learn at school.

• Visit your local library to research the topic.
• When you are out and about, keep a close look out for people who help us and have a chat about their uniform, possible vehicles they are driving and the noise it makes to identify more about their role in our community.
• Is there anyone in your family who helps us in our community? If so, have a chat with your child and share some interesting facts for them to share in our talking and listening lessons.
• Practice the green cross code.
• Talk to your child about basic safety in your home including how important internet safety is.
• Has your child been to the zoo or seen animals on the TV that use camouflage to keep them safe? Discuss how at home to help them with class discussions.

Don’t forget to have lots of fun.
