Lesson video

Hello, my name is Ms. Ruth.

Today, we're going to be looking at the lesson called "Private Parts of our Bodies." This fits into the lesson unit Power in Relationships: Should I keep secrets? Now in this lesson, it is required that you have a trusted adult with you before you continue watching.

Have you got your trusted adult with you? Great, let's get ready to begin.

Today's lesson outcome is I can describe which parts of my body are private.

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

Laura says we should "Listen to others," and that means we are not going to interrupt or talk when somebody else is speaking.

Andeep says we should "Respect privacy." And that means if somebody decides to share a story or talk about their own experience, that we are not going to repeat it 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 are not going to make comments or judge them because of it.

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

All of these ground rules are here to keep everyone safe in the lesson.

Here are today's key words.

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

Are you ready? Genitals.

Penis.

Vulva.

Well done.

Genitals are the private parts of our body between our legs.

Penis is a private part that boys and men have between their legs.

And a vulva is a private body part that girls and women have between their legs.

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

Here is the lessons outlined, and we are going to begin with which parts of our body are important? All body parts are important.

Each body part has its own job, which helps us to stay healthy.

Aisha says, "Our hearts pump blood around our bodies to keep us alive." And Alex says, "Our brains help us to learn and remember new things." Can you think of any other jobs that our body parts do? Have a little think to yourself.

Our eyes help us to see.

Our legs help us to walk.

Our lungs help us to breathe.

Our muscles help us to move.

Time for a check for understanding.

Fill in the missing words in this sentence.

Mmm body parts are important.

Hmm.

What could that missing word be? Pause this video so you can have some time to think about your answer.

Well done, if you said all.

All body parts are important.

Our genitals are also important parts of our body.

Genitals are the body parts between our legs that help us to go to the toilet.

Okay, time for a check for understanding.

What do our genitals help us to do? Is it A breathe and move, B, see and hear, or C, go to the toilet? Hmm.

Well done, if you said, C.

Our genitals help us to go to the toilet.

A boy's genitals are called a penis.

A girl's genitals are called a vulva.

Dr.

Elsie says, "You might have heard of the word vagina.

The word vagina is also a part of a girl's genitals, but it is inside her body, not outside her body like the vulva." Dr.

Elsie continues to say, "It's important to use the correct names to describe our genitals, just like how we use the correct names to describe all of our other body parts! It is not rude to use the correct names for our genitals." Okay, time for a check for understanding.

What are the names we use to describe boys' and girls' genitals? Pause this video so you can have some time to think about your answer.

Okay.

Well done, if you remembered that we used the word penis to describe boys' genitals and the word vulva to describe girls' genitals.

Time for a task now.

I would like you to label four to five parts of our body on the human outline and then describe why they are important.

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.

Your labels could look like this.

Our eyes help us to see.

Our genitals help us to go to the toilet.

Our legs help us to walk.

Our brains help us to learn and remember things.

Our lungs help us to breathe.

And our muscles help us to move.

Well done, if your labels look similar to mine.

We are now going to move onto the second and the final part of our lesson: Which parts of our body are private? Some parts of our body are private.

Dr.

Elsie says, "This means that these body parts need special care and should only be touched by trusted adults when necessary." Our genitals are a private part of our body.

Okay, time for a check for understanding.

Okay.

Well done, if you remembered that our genitals are private, such as our penis or vulva.

Dr.

Elsie says, "If a body part is hurting, including our genitals, it's important to tell a trusted adult such as a parent, carer, or teacher.

Sometimes we might need to visit a doctor who can help us feel better." She continues to say that, "Sometimes, doctors and nurses will need to look or touch our genitals if we are feeling unwell or if our genitals are hurting.

This helps doctors to understand what is wrong and decide which medicine we need to feel better.

Doctors and nurses will ask for permission first and will explain what they are going to do." and permission means that they're going to ask if that's okay before they touch or look at your genitals.

Okay, time for a check for understanding.

If anyone asks to look or touch your genitals, even if they say it is a game, or if anyone makes you feel uncomfortable, you must tell a trusted adult.

If your trusted adult doesn't listen or help you, keep telling other adults until you are heard.

Trusted adult could include a parent or carer at home, and it can also include teachers and other staff at school.

You will not get into trouble and your trusted adults will make sure that you are safe.

If someone asks to look at or touch your genitals or makes you feel uncomfortable, you can say, stop or no.

Okay, well done, if you said true.

Let's read the scenario together.

Zaki says, "My friend asked to look at my penis in the toilets.

It made me feel uncomfortable." Your task is to tell your partner two things that Zaki should do next.

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