*Learning+from+Term+1

Learning from Term 1 Our first Theme Unit was Setting The Scene. This unit was centred on setting classroom rules, expectations, understanding school rules, being safe, and how to work with each other. Part of this unit was Road Safety. We had a visit from The Police Education Officer who took us through a cycle course at school. We learnt how to signal correctly (left and right hand turning signals, stop signals and how to move safely on the road). Once we were confident we went on a road trip with Police Education Officers and our teacher around the Cloverlea community.

We also learnt that a bike must have brakes that work, orange pedal reflectors and a rear red reflector. If you are riding at night you must have a red rear light and a white light at the front. media type="custom" key="3595412"

In conjuction with our Setting The Scene unit we have started a unit called Keeping Ourselves Safe. This unit looks at how we can indentify dangers and hazards and how to deal with these. Check out the key words within this unit. We got into groups and discussed what we thought all these key words meant to us.
