Developing Opportunities for PSHE Education in Daily Life
Home learning can provide an excellent opportunity to embed PSHE education within household routines. Below are some examples of how learning in different PSHE topics can be applied to pupils’ daily lives during the social distancing period:
|
Healthy lifestyles |
Getting involved in cooking a healthy meal and discussing the importance of balanced food choices • Completing a short workout, followed by a conversation about how exercise makes someone feel and why it is important • Having conversations about the importance of hygiene, including hand washing, following current government guidelines, etc |
|
Relationships |
Discussing the importance of ‘checking in’ with friends and being kind to one another during challenging times • Keeping in contact with isolated family members or elderly relatives and having a conversation about the importance of doing this |
|
Mental health and emotional wellbeing |
Completing a yoga or meditation session online, and discussing how these practices can help to promote positive mental health • Completing a journal on a daily or weekly basis to reflect on feelings and emotions • Discussing daily goals and achievements |
|
Digital literacy |
Assessing the accuracy of sources of information after watching or reading media coverage, and recognising when and how to limit time accessing news coverage if it is causing feelings of anxiety or worry • Discussing safe use of online tools that can be used to stay in touch, e.g. keeping personal information and social media accounts private, being respectful to others online, etc. |
