New! Germs and Handwashing - EYFS/Reception
Germs and Handwashing EYFS PSHE lesson.
A detailed, fully resourced PSHE lesson suitable for EYFS/Reception age children. This lesson has been designed for use with children in Reception, however, the PowerPoint and activities could be adapted for use with other age groups.
In this lesson, the children will learn about germs and the importance of handwashing. We will discuss how and why we need to wash our hands, as well as identifying when our hands should be washed (e.g. after a cough or sneeze). We will read Tony Ross' story, I Don't Want to Wash My Hands, before carrying out a choice of adult-led and independent activities.
The lesson includes a sing-along starter (to ensure a swift start to the lesson), a story with discussion prompts, an adult-led focus task, independent activities to be carried out during continuous provision, and a plenary task.
Created to fit the new DfE and PSHE Association statutory 2020 /21 guidelines, the lesson includes a detailed PowerPoint, all editable with accompanying tasks and worksheets.
The lesson has been left editable and is filled with engaging activities. It is designed to be ‘no prep’, so you can just pick it up and use it, although it is still adaptable should you wish to.
