Introductie

Part of our Summer Safety series, in this lesson pupils will learn how to protect themselves during the warm weather. They will also discover what UV means.

Instructies

We have designed our Summer Safety 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'
