In this unit, children explore an event that has been commemorated annually for over a 100 years. Children investigate the origins of Remembrance Day and how its significance has grown to incorporate conflicts up to the present day. Children who belong to service or refugee families may have direct, personal experiences of recent hostilities, and their schools will need to exercise sensitivity and discretion in teaching this topic. It is helpful if the children have considered other types of anniversaries and/or commemorations and used historical sources such as artefacts and photographs to ask and answer questions about the past. Although this focuses on Remembrance day the unit can be easily adapted to fit for VE day 1: Memories • To find out why people wear poppies at this time of year. • Explain why we wear poppies for Remembrance.

Lesson 1: Making choices Lesson 2: Dilemmas Lesson 3: Choosing a friend Lesson 4: How to play Lesson 5: Playing safe Lesson 6: Managing money Lesson 7: Money and talents Lesson 8: Looking at job choices In this unit of work the children will be taught to understand that we all have a right to our own opinion, which we express in the choices we make. Discussions throughout the unit will also help children to understand that their choices have different consequences, not only for themselves, but for other people around them. Even at an early age, there are real choices for children to make, for example, choosing healthy options at school meal-times and deciding what games to play. The lessons will also begin to cover and allow opportunities for discussion concerning how to use money wisely and how to explore related issues such as fairness; whilst encouraging the children to think about different career choices for the future.
