Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support
Year 3: Could focus on the right to play as it includes just one right and children may be more familiar with it.
Year 4: Give children examples of adults who might have responsibilities around right, for example teachers, parents/carers, the police or the local council.
Pupils working at greater depth
Year 3: Could be challenged to develop ideas around how we can support the rights in this country and other countries.
Year 4: Should be challenged to develop more ideas about children’s responsibilities, explaining how individual behaviours can affect others.
