Introduction

Part of the British Values series. This lesson for KS1 explores the concept of fairness.

Instructions

We have designed our British Values lessons so that teachers can pick up and teach a topic to their class with confidence.

We have chosen to use a balance of interactive tools and 'unplugged' creative activities.

Lessons can be taught directly from the LessonUp slides but work best when children have access to the pupil app

Lessonup.app

If you have any questions or want to know more, please do get in touch. We'd love to show you how LessonUp can make 'Every Class Better Than The Last'

KS1: It's Not Fair

British Values The Rule of Law

This lesson supports British Values. It can be used to compliment your existing schemes of learning or as an ad-hoc session.

It also links with the PSHE Association Programme of Study for KS1:

L1. about what rules are, why they are needed, and why different rules are needed

L4. about the different groups they belong to

L5. about the different roles and responsibilities people have in their community for different situations

In this lesson, we will:

• Think about what is fair and
   what is unfair
  
• Consider why we need rules 

This lesson links to the PSHE Association Programme of Study for KS1.

It also can also be used as part of your school's British Values curriculum offer.

What is Fairness?

This slide will help you to understand what your class know about this topic.

It may also help to spot where there are misconceptions around the topic.

It is really easy to add a Mindmap in LessonUp. There is more information on our help pages.

Aardappeloproer

1917

Enkele Amsterdamse vrouwen zagen dat er een schip vol aardappelen in een van de grachten lag. Ze gingen erop af en plunderden het schip: hun schorten vol aardappelen. De dag erna waren er meer plunderaars. Pas nadat zes mensen door het leger werden doodgeschoten, keerde de rust terug
