Learning objective
- To begin to understand the risks of alcohol.
Statutory guidance
- Children should know the facts about legal and illegal harmful substances and associated risks, including smoking, alcohol use and drug-taking.
- National curriculum > Science > Animals including humans > Pupils should learn how to keep their bodies healthy and how their bodies might be damaged – including how some drugs and other substances can be harmful to the human body.
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Could just consider the risks associated with consuming alcohol rather than both the positives and negatives.
Pupils working at greater depth: Can be challenged during the activity to divide the consequences of excessive use into short and long-term effects. They could also look at alcoholic units to understand more about what excessive use might mean using the link: NHS Alcohol Units.
