All the key information you need to guide your pupils through the lesson is included in the notes on the slide deck, and you don t need to do any special preparation or research to be able to lead the lesson effectively.

4 THE BIG CLASS CHALLENGE Lesson Plan Lesson overview Lesson objective Success criteria Resources (dependent on stations chosen) This lesson focuses on exploring a range of jobs within the community through a variety of teacher-led and continuous provision activities. The lesson will prompt pupils to think about the jobs they see around them, what those jobs entail, and which they might like to experience. There is also a focus throughout on promoting positive attitudes around diversity and equality pupils should engage with the lesson on the basis that they are all able to access any job of their choosing regardless of gender, ethnicity or familial background. To explore some different jobs and think about which ones we might like to do. 1. To have imagined yourself in at least one job role. 2. To have explored what acting in at least one job role might be like. 3. To understand that you can do whatever job you want to. Resource 1 printed onto card, cut out and string attached to form masks 8 pages One photo of each child s face for station 3 Resource 2 printed onto A4 1 per pupil Paints/colouring pencils/glue/craft items for station 3 Resource 3 1 colour A3 version for station 3 Resource 4 3 or 4 A3 versions for station 4 Resource 5 printed onto A4 1 per pupil Appropriate big book for station 1 see session plan Additional dress up props for station 2 if possible Play dough for station 4 Construction materials e.g. different-sized cardboard boxes for station 6 Lesson outline and timings Beginning (15 minutes) Teacher N.B. We acknowledge that 15 minutes of carpet time may be too much for some EYFS pupils during term 1. If this is the case for your class, focus on the first two activities up to slide 4. As pupils come in, have them sit on the carpet and explain that in this lesson we are going to be thinking about some of the things we might want to do when we grow up. (slide 2 optional) Show pupils video 1 (slide 3) developed by Little Airplane Productions for the BBC, and facilitate a discussion about some of the jobs that the small potatoes wanted to be. Using the cut out masks on resource 1 and additional props and dress up clothes if available, nominate a few pupils to come to the front, put on a mask, and tell the class who they are and what their job is (slide 4) what do they do every day? Your TA or colleague/s could model this initially, with pupils voicing thoughts and suggestions from the carpet. Finally, show pupils the pictures on slides 5-10 and see if they can guess what the buildings are and who might work there. The final image is a university explain that we will go to a couple of bigger schools as we get older, and when we are all grown up we can choose to go to an even bigger school, maybe far away from where we live now, and we call that university. There is the potential here to ask pupils if they have older brothers/sisters/cousins/know of anyone who goes to any of the secondary schools in the area/if they have heard of the secondary schools to help them visualise what bigger schools are. Pupils On arrival sit on the carpet and watch video 1, and think about the jobs the small potatoes want to do some will have the opportunity to feedback thoughts. Some will have the opportunity to come to the front and pick a mask to wear cut out from resource 1, and imagine they work in that job. Guess what buildings are being shown on the board. 4
