Over the course of term 5 and 6, 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.Â
For more information regarding the knowledge and skills progression, please view the “Jigsaw Knowledge Skills and Progression Document for ages 9-10″.Â

With this, we will discuss how to recognise when gaming is becoming unsafe. Lastly, we will consider what makes a good relationship and how we can help others if they are upset.Â
Term 4: Changing Me
In this Puzzle, we will learn about self and body image, puberty in boys and girls and the changes that will happen; we will reflect on how they feel about these changes. The children also learn about conception and that sometimes people need IVF to help them have a baby. We will discuss worries about changes and how some changes within puberty bring increased responsibilities such as washing more often. We will also consider looking ahead in different ways and what we are looking forward to when moving to a different class and how to tackle changes.Â
