TRANSCRIPT
Year 7, Unit 1Getting to know each other
Aims: for students to get to know each other and to consider the way in which they interact within the tutor group and with each other.
The following series of lessons utilises discussion as its main tool. Each slide has a stimulus or question for the students to discuss, either
in pairs or in larger groups. The only resources required are post-it notes, the students’ books and some statement cards in lesson 3.
Note to staff: this series of lessons has been structured in a different way from those of other year groups. I would very much like your feedback on how the lessons went. Also, if you have a moment, it
would be great if you could look at one of the other year groups’ units of work to let me and your PSHE team know how you would prefer to receive lessons. You can find all of the units of work and resources at
