Florence Nightingale Class Practical PE Science Art History Mission Activities

If you’re teaching Florence Nightingale, these missions can help to add practical activities to your lessons. 1 mission for each week which focusses on a different aspect of what Florence Nightingale experienced. Missions help to develop character traits in your children, such as team work, resilience, empathy, self-awareness, perseverance, excellence and communication. Missions can be set up in your hall, outside or in the classroom using simple PE equipment. As missions are not all focussed on winning, children work in groups to develop different character traits. There are designing tasks, art tasks and links with science included in the missions.

There are 12 missions, with a 13th for a reward mission; this could be additional playtime or a bouncy castle!

Links for the practical activities include PE, Art, History and Science, all matching the Year 2 curriculum.
