Being a good family member
Lesson details
Learning outcome
I can describe what roles and responsibilities people have at home.
Key learning points
- Healthy families have rules to make things fair and kind.
- We should listen carefully to what our trusted adults say.
- We should contribute to our family life if we can.
- Parents and carers should provide the things that children need.
- We sometimes need to help our families.
Keywords
Fair - when everyone gets what they need
Responsibilities - the actions that we take to show care and respect for others
Role - the things we do to help other people
Common misconception
Parents and carers should do everything for a child.
Children will benefit if they contribute, in a proportionate way, to life at home. This will also often take the pressure off parents and carers, who are often busy.
Teacher tip
Make a link between school rules and the rules that pupils have in their own homes. Reinforce that rules should be there to make things fairer and safer for everybody.
