Over the course of term 3 and 4, we will continue to follow our Jigsaw PSHE scheme of learning. Jigsaw, the mindful approach to PSHE is a progressive and spiral scheme of learning. In planning the lessons, Jigsaw PSHE ensures that learning from previous years is revisited and extended, adding new concepts, knowledge and skills, year on year as appropriate.
For more information regarding the knowledge and skills progression, please view the Jigsaw Knowledge Skills and Progression Document for ages 5-6.
Term 3: Dreams and Goals
In this puzzle we will think about how to set ourselves simple goals and how to stay motivated when doing something challenging. Following this, we will set a goal and work out how best to achieve it, even when it is difficult. We will discuss how to work successfully with a partner or in a group. Furthermore, we will develop the skills of how to tackle a new challenge and understand that this might be difficult. We will consider how to maintain a positive attitude and reflect upon our journey to success by how we overcame obstacles which make it more difficult to achieve our challenge. Our puzzle piece for the term will then consider how we can use these skills to help others achieve their goals. Finally, we will celebrate our success and share how it feels to succeed in a new challenge and how we would celebrate.
Term 4: Healthy Me
The outcome for this puzzle piece if to learn about how to create “The Happy, Healthy Me Recipe Book”. A metaphorical book where children can piece together their learning of how to be happy and healthy. We will start the term by learning to understand the difference between being healthy and unhealthy, and know some ways to keep ourselves healthy. We will start to introduce the concept of making healthy choices with regard to food types and learn about eating a healthy, balanced diet. Children will then learn how to keep themselves clean and healthy and understand how germs cause disease and illness. We will learn that all household products including medicines can be harmful if not administered properly. Medicine safety will be our next focus area as we learn that medicines can help us if we are unwell, and we learn how to use them safely. Road safety will be the next topic focus as we learn how to keep safe when crossing the road and about people who can help us to stay safe. We will end the puzzle by celebrating our amazing bodies and identify the ways we have learnt to keep ourselves safe and heathy.
