Teaching Table
Set out your lesson
Practise offering consent-based practical help and kind words without requiring spontaneous kindness.
Can offer or decline help; all role-play is announced and optional.
Check activity readiness with accessible response; pause or supply prerequisite help when needed. Do not treat age range or graph position as attainment.
Open teaching first, then learner cards. Adult key stays separate. Read supplied content; do not invent a passage, scene or history image.
Show and guided material are for teaching. Put them aside before recall; any passage, word bank or model used during the check must be recorded as support. Learner givens remain available for source-reading tasks.
Only scrap paper, pencil or ordinary safe objects where the authored task explicitly uses them; oral/pointing alternatives allowed.
No account, recording, real-user data or compulsory personal disclosure.
Materials are ready in each step. Use them on screen or print just the current step. Put teaching examples aside before the learner tries.
What this lesson covers and its limits
These are bounded opportunities, not learner attainment. Partial and blocked source requirements remain so.
- partial: Show kindness and care towards others in simple everyday ways — comforting a friend who is upset, helping someone who has dropped their things, sharing without being asked, and saying kind words
Bounded objective and prepared task only; all examples, universal claims and real-world behaviour are not established. Do not create distress, drop objects as an undisclosed test or reward unwanted touch. Genuine spontaneous observations only if they naturally occur and can be noted minimally without private details.
- partial: Spontaneously offer comfort to someone who is visibly upset
No spontaneous response to actual distress observed.
- partial: Help another person with a practical task without being asked
Practical help is prompted fiction, not unasked real help.
- partial: Use kind words to encourage or cheer up someone who is struggling
Kind words rehearsed for a fictional puzzle; everyday use remains conditional.
- partial: If a younger child at school falls over in the playground, does {{name}} go over to help or comfort them without being told to by an adult?
Prepared adapted check is not a complete equivalent to all source contexts, images or genuine independent habits. Do not create distress, drop objects as an undisclosed test or reward unwanted touch. Genuine spontaneous observations only if they naturally occur and can be noted minimally without private details.
