IDAC Key Stage 1
Lesson Plan Overview
Lesson 1
L.O: Understanding the idea of rights
In this lesson, the children will be introduced to the idea of rights by discussing how they would like to be treated. They will use flashcards to recognise what they like and dislike, what is fair and unfair, and what is right and wrong, expressing their own views about people, places and the environment. The main task will involve deciding classroom rules that everyone is happy with and then explaining that by signing everyone agrees to follow the rules so everyone will feel safe in the classroom.

Lesson 3
L.O: Finding out how learning in Africa is different to the UK
Children will be asked to count the steps they take to school and then compare this to how many steps Ugandan students such as Joseph and Sarah from the case studies take. This is one difference that can be made apparent in a fun and inclusive way.
