Dr. Rewa Chisholm
Tampa, FL
Health Benchmark: HE.5.C.1.3: Explain ways a safe, healthy home environment and school environment promote personal health. Objective: Students will learn specific rules that can increase personal safety. As an introduction to the Got2B
Safe activities, I will have my 5th grade students independently complete the “Let’s Take a Safety Test” worksheet. Once the test is completed, we will hold a group discussion about each question to reiterate the four rules: Check First, Go with a
friend, It’s my body, and Tell a trusted adult. Planned activities: 1) Students will use the “What Would You Do” scenarios to create & perform a skit that will be played for the entire student body (K-5) on the school’s morning show. 2) Students
will work in a collaborative group of 4 to create a safety poster, which depicts one of the places presented in the “Lets Take a Safety Test” worksheet (at home, walking home, internet, mall, park). This poster will be displayed in the main office for the school community to see. 3) Students will review brochures and tip sheets from the Know the Rules Series. They will use Microsoft Word to create their own brochure highlighting the four rules: Check First, Go with a friend, It’s my body, Tell a trusted adult to be shared with the entire school. Copies of these brochures will be displayed in the school library and the main office. They will also be available for students and parents to take home.
