Today in our Keeping Ourselves Safe health lesson we learned about different types of touch - touch we like, touch that hurts and we want to stop, and confusing touch that we want to stop.

Our learning Intentions for this lesson were:

Children can:

• decide whether a touch is one they like, one they don’t like or one that is confusing.

• say how different types of touch make us feel.

Some examples of types of touch we discussed:
Touch we like: A hug with Dad, holding hands with Mum, sitting close to a friend.
Touch we don’t like: Kicking, hitting, being pushed, having your hair pulled.
Confusing touch: Having your pants pulled down, tickling that’s too hard.

If you have any questions please come and see me.
