Why is the news important? KS2 PSHE Lesson. A one hour-long, very detailed, fully resourced PSHE lesson suitable for KS2. This lesson has been created for Year 3, however, the resource is suitable for use across KS2. In this lesson, the students will discuss what the news is and why people access it. We will discuss whether the news is always reliable, and reflect on why access to truthful and trustworthy news is important. The students will use their fact-checking skills to analyse a set of fake news case files. The lesson includes an information sheet, a key term matching activity, a video clip activity, a set of fake news case files, 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, well differentiated and fun 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.
