Big Feelings, Trusted Grown-Ups

A 7-slide friendly introduction to the emotional and safety side of KS1 PSHE. Slides 1–3 build emotional vocabulary and self-regulation strategies (the breathing exercise is the standard “smell-the-flower, blow-out-the-candle” used in primary schools). Slide 4 introduces the idea of a “trusted grown-up”. Slide 5 covers the crucial KS1 distinction between secrets (which should never be kept if they make you feel bad) and surprises (which are short, happy, and end with a reveal). Slide 6 introduces basic online safety. Slide 7 closes with the “5 finger help-hand” — five trusted people to write down. Throughout: NEVER keep a secret if it makes you feel worried.
