Section outline

  • WELCOME to 10C2PEH!   :-)

    We will dive into our context this week

    Learning Intention:

     We are learning how to demonstrate key safety behaviours in order to successfully participate in Outdoor Eduction activities.

     

    Success Criteria

    • Define the key safety behaviours
    • Define what outdoor education and outdoor activities are
    • Understand physical and emotional safety
    • Explore how safety behaviours and their correct/incorrect demonstration influence physical and emotional safety.
    • Demonstrate key safety behaviours in chosen activities
    • Reflect on your own personal demonstration of these safety behaviours

     

     


    Term 1 CONTEXT - Leadership 

    TUESDAY - In-class session

    Today we will be in class.  

    ***Overcoming challenging situations that contain risk***

    Risk management procedures control how physical activities are performed and reduces likelihood of injury.  You are working to manage the risks.  Risks thus need to be identified in the following categories:

    - equipment

    - environment

    - people - actual vs. perceived risk also occurs here

    We will then go through the key safety behaviours needed to help manage these risk. LOOKS LIKE/FEELS LIKE/SOUNDS LIKE. They are also used heavily in outdoor leadership.  We discussed some during last weeks' activity.

    • Co-operation with others – how I work with others.
    •  Self-management – being on time, right place, bringing the right gear.
    • Compliance with Instructions – doing what has been requested.
    • Care of equipment –- using equipment appropriately.
    • Appropriate communication – how I talk to and respond to others.
    • Teamwork – how I work with others for a common purpose.
    • Assisting and supporting others – helping others out and encouraging them.
    • Tolerance – being patient and respectful.
    • Conflict resolution – dealing with issues between other people in a responsible and appropriate way.

    You will be placed in expert groups and be responsible for understanding one of the above safety behaviours.

    Finally, you will complete a small trust fall activity to identify the difference between physical vs. emotional safety.  

    WEDNESDAY/FRIDAY - Practical session

    We will have another go with the River crossing (if not done). And then demonstrate these safety behaviours during a class maze.
