Lesson video

Hello, my name is Ms. Rose.

Today we're going to be looking at the lesson, dangers outside the home.

This fits into the lesson unit, staying safe and healthy.

How can I look after my body? Now in this lesson, we're going to be talking about things that might make you feel worried, so it's recommended that you have your trusted adult with you before you continue watching the video.

Have you got them with you? Great.

Let's make a start.

Today's lesson outcome is I can describe dangers outside the home and ways to keep myself safe.

Let's begin by taking a look at our ground rules together, and we have some friends here to help us.

Laura says, "We should listen to others," and that means not interrupting when somebody else is speaking.

And Duke says, "We should respect privacy," and that means if somebody decides to share a story or their own experience, that we don't go and repeat it to others outside of this lesson.

Jacob says, "No judgement ," and that means if somebody does decide to share a story or their own experience, that we don't judge them because of it.

And Izzy says, "Choose your level of participation." That means you can decide if you simply just want to listen or if you want to share something throughout the lesson.

These ground rules are here to keep everybody safe.

Here are today's keywords.

I will read them first to you and then you can repeat them after me.

Are you ready? Dangerous.

Emergency.

Great job.

Dangerous means something that can cause us harm.

And emergency is a dangerous situation that needs immediate help.

Let's see if we can spot these keywords throughout today's lesson.

Here is the lessons outline, and we are going to begin with what are some of the dangers outside the home? There are different dangers outside of the home that could cause us harm.

Jacob says, "It's important that we can spot these dangers and know how to keep safe outside of the home." We must be careful when walking on pavements and crossing roads.

Roads are dangerous because there can be many people moving quickly in their vehicles.

Vehicles are cars, buses, vans, lorries, and bikes.

If we are knocked over by a vehicle, we can get seriously hurt or killed.

Izzy says, "Can you spot any dangers on this road?" Hmm, try and look really closely.

Well done if you spotted the pedestrian, the person who's walking on the pavement with their bike.

We need to be careful of the progesterone with their bike because we don't want 'em to get knocked over into the road.

Well done if you spotted the car, the car seems to be moving quite quickly on the road.

And well done if you spotted the bus, it is parked up at the bus stop, letting people on.

Time for a check for understanding.

Why must we be careful when walking on pavements and crossing the road? Is it A, because there are lots of trees and plants? B, because there are many vehicles moving quickly? Or C, because there could be dangerous animals? Hmm, why must we be careful when walking on pavements and crossing the road? Pause this video so you can have some thinking time.

Well done if you said B.

We must be careful when walking on pavements and crossing the road because there are many vehicles moving quickly.

We must also be careful around water.

Lakes, rivers, and ponds can be deep and muddy.

It can be difficult to know how deep the water is and the ground underneath can be slippery, which can make it hard to stand up.

Rivers and the sea can have strong currents.

This means the water moves very quickly, making it difficult to swim and get back to shore.

Izzy says, "The sea can also have big waves that can pull us underneath the water, which is scary and dangerous.

Time for a check for understanding.

Which places have strong currents that make it difficult to swim and get back to shore? Is it A, rivers? B, the sea? Or C, ponds? Hmm, which places have strong currents that make it difficult to swim and get back to shore? Pause this video so you can have some thinking time.

Well done if you said A, rivers and B, the sea.

Swimming pools are great places to exercise and have fun.

However, we must be careful around them.

Running around swimming pools can be dangerous because the floor is wet, which means we might fall over and hurt ourselves.

Swimming pools can also be deep, and often there's a label or a signpost that says deep end.

This makes it difficult to swim or stand up.

Time for a check for understanding.

True or false? Swimming pools can be dangerous because they can be deep making it difficult to swim or stand up.

You can give me a thumbs up if you think it's true, or a thumbs down if you think it's false.

Hmm, swimming pools can be dangerous because they can be deep, making it difficult to swim or stand up.

True or false? Pause this video so you can have some thinking time.

Well done if you said true.

Time for a task now.

Circle the dangers in each picture, then tell your partner why we need to be careful of the dangers.

Pause this video so you can have some time to do the task, and then we will go through the answers together.

Well done for having a go.

You should have circled these dangers.

In the first picture, the vehicles.

In the second picture, the waves.

And in the third picture, the floor around the swimming pool and the water that might be deep.

For the first picture, you might have said this to your partner.

"In this picture, we should be careful of the vehicles when walking on pavements and crossing the road.

Vehicles move very quickly, and if we get knocked over, we could be seriously hurt or killed." For the second picture, you might have said this to your partner.

In this picture, we should be careful of the waves and the potential current in the sea.

The waves and the current can pull us under the water and make it difficult to swim back to shore." And for the third picture, you might have said, "In this picture, we should be careful of the wet floor, which we might fall over on and hurt ourselves.

We should also be careful of the deep end, which is an area where it is more difficult to swim or stand up." Well done if you said something similar to your partner.

We are now going to move on to the second and final part of this lesson.

How can I keep myself safe outside the home? There are different things we can do to keep safe outside the home.

It's important to know how to stay safe near roads so that we don't get hurt.

We must always walk on the pavement and hold a trusted adult's hand.

Time for a check for understanding.

How can we stay safe near roads? Is it A, by playing near roads? B, by walking on pavements? Or C, by holding a trusted adult's hand? Hmm, how can we stay safe near roads? Pause this video so you can have some thinking time.

Well done if you said B and C.

We can stay safe near roads by walking on pavements and holding our trusted adult's hand.

If we need to cross a road.

We should only do this with our trusted adult, and we must always look both ways before crossing to check if it is safe to cross and that no vehicles are coming.

We should also listen carefully so we can hear any vehicles.

For some crossings, we need to press the pedestrian button and wait for the green man to show on the light.

The red man tells us that it is not safe to cross the road.

And the green man tells us that it is safe to cross the road.

Here are some steps that we should follow to safely cross the road.

Number one, hold a trusted adult's hand.

Number two, press the pedestrian button.

Number three, wait for the green man.

And number four, look both left and right and listen carefully before crossing.

Izzy says, "Although this crossing on this picture has a pedestrian button, it is still a good idea to also look both ways before crossing the road." Well done, Izzy.

Sometimes there might not be a pedestrian button to press when we're crossing a road just like in this picture.

So to stay safe, we should hold a trusted adult's hand, look both left and right and listen carefully to check for vehicles before crossing and only cross when it is safe to do so.

Time for a check for understanding.

Lucas wants to cross this road safely with his trusted adult.

What does he need to do? Pause this video so you can have some thinking time and then we will go through the answers together.

Well done for having a go.

Your answers should include, number one, hold his trusted adult's hand.

Two, press the pedestrian button.

Three, wait for the green man before crossing the road.

And four, look both left and right before crossing.

Well done if you got that correct.

Although it can be fun going swimming, especially in the summer, it is dangerous to get into the water without a trusted adult.

Jacob says, "I always ask my dad to come swimming in the sea with me.

This helps me keep safe from the waves and the current." Children can wear armbands or use a floating device when swimming in the water to help them float and stay safe.

Jacob says, "Children can also keep safe by only swimming in the shallow parts of the pool or sea." It's important to always stay close to our trusted adult when we are near water.

For example, when walking next to a river or a pond.

Time for a check for understanding.

How can we stay safe around water? Is it A, by only going to swim with a trusted adult? B, to swim in the deep end of the pool? C, to stay close to our trusted adult when walking near water? Or C, by wearing armbands or using a floating device to help us float? Hmm, how can we stay safe near water? Pause this video so you can have some thinking time.

Well done if you said A, C, and D.

We can stay safe around water by only swimming with our trusted adult, by staying close to our trusted adult when walking near water, and by wearing armbands or using a floating device to help us float.

If we are ever in an emergency, we should find help from a trusted adult straight away or call 999.

An emergency could be a fire or someone getting seriously hurt.

We can call the emergency services from a phone even if the screen is locked with a password.

When we call 999 in an emergency, we can get help from the police, firefighters, ambulance service, coast guard, and mountain rescue.

Police Officer Kofi says, "Remember, you must only ever call 999 if you are in a real emergency." Time for a check for understanding.

Which number can we call in an emergency? Is it A, 333? B, 666? Or C, 999? Hmm, which number can we call in an emergency? Pause this video so you can have some thinking time.

Well done if you said C, 999.

Time for a task now.

Create a poster on how to stay safe either when crossing roads or around water.

Your poster must include three rules that will teach other children how to be safe outside the home.

Jacob says, "Here is an example of my poster.

I've only got one rule so far." Jacob's poster says, "How to stay safe when crossing the road." And his rule that he's written so far says, "We must always look both ways before crossing the road." Well done, Jacob.

I can't wait to see what it looks like when you're finished.

Okay.

For the rest of us, we need to make a start.

So pause this video so that you can have some time to do the task, and then we will go through the answers together.

Well done For having a go.

Your poster on how to cross the road safely could look like this.

We must always hold our trusted adult's hand before crossing the road.

We must wait for the green man before crossing the road.

And we must always look both left and right and listen carefully before crossing the road.

If you created a poster about being safe around water, it could look like this.

We must only swim in water with a trusted adult.

We must only swim in the shallow parts of the pool and sea.

And children can wear armbands or use a floating device to help them float.

Well done if your posters look similar to mine.

Here is a summary of everything that we've spoken about today.

We must be careful when walking on pavements and crossing the road.

Vehicles are dangerous because they move very quickly.

We can get seriously hurt or killed if we are knocked over by a vehicle.

We must be careful around water.

Rivers and seas are dangerous as they can have strong currents that can pull us underwater To keep safe when crossing the road, we must hold our trusted adult's hand, look both ways and listen carefully before crossing.

We must only swim in water with a trusted adult and stay in the shallow parts of the sea or pool.

In an emergency, we must get help from a trusted adult or call 999.
