Build a layered help plan

Supplied materials

• Paper or a text document; all cases below are original fictional learning inputs.
• An adult may read aloud; drawing or spoken answers are valid. No personal health information or physical performance is required.
• The fictional school map names a teacher as first safety helper and the office adult as backup. A child reports, “Someone keeps pushing me near the art door.” If the teacher is absent, the child goes to the office adult rather than waiting silently. The map includes what was observed and a backup route; it does not require the child to prove someone’s motive.
• A child needs to find extra crayons, with no safety issue. Which route fits?
• A child is repeatedly shoved near a doorway; a teacher is available. Which fits?
• The assigned teacher is absent when a safety concern occurs. Which fits?
• A fictional scene contains immediate life-threatening danger. Which fits?
• The first adult dismisses an unresolved safety concern. Which fits?
• A child needs help with a harmless worksheet instruction. Which fits?

Learn the idea

A help plan has more than one route. A routine question may go to a classroom helper. A safety concern should go to a responsible adult promptly. If the first adult is unavailable or does not address it, another adult can be told.

A clear report separates observation from guessing: “I saw…” rather than “I know why…” Include the place and what help is needed. Do not promise to keep a safety problem secret, and do not investigate danger alone.

Use invented roles instead of real contact details. The finished work is a paper map with primary and backup adults. An outside response is not required to complete the lesson. Immediate danger needs emergency help, with adult support when possible.

1. Read or listen to the pretend story. Point to the details the question gives you.
2. Name the help needed and choose the right helper. Add a backup if that helper is unavailable; keep immediate danger separate.
3. Check your answer against the example. Say what matches and what you would change.
4. Try the practice questions, then the extra task. Drawing or spoken answers are welcome.

Take it further

Draw a help map for a fictional club with a leader and an office adult. Expected: report route, backup if unavailable, and a separate immediate-danger route; omit real personal contact details.
