Keeping ourselves safe

Last week you looked at some photos and answered some questions that related to how the children should respond to the situation.  Discuss this photo with people at home and answer the same questions here on the blog.

What do you think is happening here? (Think along the lines of street safety)
What do you think the child should do?
Do you think they should report the incident? Why, why not?
Is there an adult that they can get help from straight away? If so, who is it?
Who else might they get help and support from later on?
What could they do if the people they told didn't help?

Remember, this refers to the STAR response that we have looked at earlier in the term.

What's going on in this photo - Week 4

Here is this weeks photo for our finding details and giving reasons for those details exercise.


  • What’s going on in this picture?
  • What do you see that makes you say that?
  • What more can you find?



Write your answers in the comments, write in full sentences, think about Who, What, Where, Why, How details and tell me as much as possible. You can also respectfully comment on, or refer to, other people’s answers. You might agree with them and add more detail to support their answers or you might have another opinion that you can support with other reasons. 

Who is in the picture? What are they doing? What are they feeling? Where are they? Why are they  there?  Why are they feeling that way?  Don't forget your conjunction "BECAUSE". 

UPDATE:
This week’s image is from the April 25, 2013 "Pictures of the Day" post on the Lens blog. All four living former presidents joined President Obama during the dedication ceremony at the George W. Bush Presidential Library in 2013. The original caption reads:
Silvio Berlusconi, center, the former prime minister of Italy, during the dedication ceremony at the presidential library.

This was not the first time Mr. Berlusconi was caught sleeping at official ceremonies!!
