Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Using the KWL strategy as in the previous lesson, let the Learners tell you what learners know about the sub-theme, what they want to know, before you read (the BIG BOOK) to them. Let learners share what they have learnt about safety measures we need to take to prevent accidents (hurts, and harm from sharp objects, electricity, boiling water, etc.). Practice some safety measures of how to cross the road, how to hold a knife. Learners role play using these safety measures at home.
