Starter activity: Responsible behaviour

This activity starts with a baseline assessment to help assess pupils’ current understanding of responsible behaviour in school.

Pupils then watch a film about responsible behaviour, rules and consequences, following the story of Farrah who is managing the consequence of breaking a home-rule.


activity

Main activity 1: Rules

In this activity, pupils think about the positive impacts of following rules and the negative impacts of breaking them, for themselves and others. They consider their own school rules and why they exist.


activity

Main activity 2: Managing behaviour

In this activity, pupils consider how thoughts and feelings may affect behaviour in the playground. If someone is feeling over-excited, angry or upset, they may be more likely to behave inappropriately. Pupils suggest how to manage these feelings and behave in a positive, responsible way.
