Objectives

Children should learn:
  • to reflect on what they have learnt about change and transition

Activities

Outcomes

Children:
  • In pairs, the children discuss three things they are looking forward to about moving to their new school, eg making new friends, learning new subjects, taking part in new sporting activities, and three things they have learnt about or can do to help them with the change, eg finding out about their new school, developing strategies for dealing with bullying, knowing who to go to for help and advice. These points could be recorded in their citizenship portfolio.
  • As a class, the children draw up a list of suggestions as to how they might celebrate leaving their old school/class and moving to a new one, eg making a friendship book with messages/pictures, organising a class party or an event for parents and other members of the school to share their achievements.
  • recognise the positive aspects of change
  • understand that preparation is part of managing change
  • reflect on and identify what they have achieved in the past year
