Autumn 1

BURPS,

BOTTOMS

and BILE!

Open wide – let’s take a look inside! We’re about to embark on an exciting, mind-blowing journey in order to investigate the busy world inside your body! Have you ever wondered how to keep that winning smile pearly white? Use disclosure tablets when brushing your teeth to make sure that you aren’t missing a trick. Also, explore what happens when dental hygiene goes wrong.

Follow a delicious morsel as it makes its way through the digestive system, helped by some mouth-watering saliva! Mmmm! Create your own digestive system using a pair of tights and some mushed up banana, sounds exciting right? Don’t forget the importance of good hygiene- at both ends of the body. And whilst we’re on this topic…… Could you recognise an animal just by looking at its poo? Are you courageous enough to accept the challenge?

Jigsaw PSHE - Being Me In My World 

The children will be looking at  understanding the importance of being an individual and exploring rights and responsibilities.

There is a wonderful website below that is useful for your child and for you as a parent. It has games and information about feelings, health, illnesses and sections on body image, mental health and much more. There is also a section for you, the parent, to refer to for information on the school nurse and it shows local Solihull support services.
