G1: Smoking

  Tobe aware of the harmfuleffect on health resulting from use of tobacco.

  To obtain and record informationfrom a variety of secondary sources

Discuss why smoking frequently comes up in Science/PSHEcurriculum. Allocate large sheets in groups of approx 4. Groups todraw round the body of one pupil. On the sheet, mark anywhere onthe body they know is affected by smoking, e.g. lungs.

After some input, allocate evidence envelopes among groups.In groups, children to read information in packs, adding to theirchart in a different colour.

As plenary, make whole-class version using stickylabels

G4: Exercise for health

  To recognise the need for ahealthy diet to maintain a healthy heart

  To recognise the importance ofcardio-vascular exercise in maintaining a healthy heart

Revise knowledge from KS2 and Unit C about heart. Elicitchildrens knowledge about healthy heart, leading to need forappropriate diet and exercise.

Initially discuss dietary recommendations, e.g. low salt,low saturated fats, etc. Refer to supermarket packaging schemes.Link to Y6 Food Tech healthy eating topic.

Lead on to need for exercise, and particularlycardio-vascular exercise to get heart working. Begin to designactivity to record changing heart rate
