Resources for primary teachers
Electricity Safety Week

Social Stories

These social stories are an easy-to-use resource to help teach students about electricity safety situations. Using simple, clear explanations of everyday situations, students can learn what usually happens, what to expect, and how to behave around electricity. These stories help children notice important social cues, feel less anxious, and build confidence in dealing with potentially dangerous situations. 

Let’s get coding 

In collaboration with Code Club Australia, we have created a Scratch coding project for primary students.

What is scratch programming? 

Scratch Programming is a block-based visual coding language used to teach coding to primary-aged students in a simple, fun way. It’s easily accessible and free to use on scratch.mit.edu 

Help your students be a coding electricity safety whizz! 

Our scratch project is aligned to the Digital Technologies curriculum. It is designed to be delivered in a 45-minute lesson and will help students create an interactive game on electricity safety. Teachers can use the step-by-step lesson guide with key curriculum outcomes and a starter project already developed in Scratch.
