Parent information for Y4 Sex and Relationship Lessons
Over the next two weeks, children in Mars Class will have several lessons about growing up and relationships. These lessons will be taught as a class by Mrs Dilleigh using a personalised version of the Twinkl scheme of learning. Further lessons in UKS2 will cover puberty in more detail and include specific changes for boys and girls as they grow older.
The lessons will cover the following concepts:
1) How our bodies change as we grow up, including:
- Body hair
- sweat/greasy hair (importance of hygiene, washing regularly and deodorant)
- spots
