Lesson summary

This lesson focuses on deepening students' understanding of security by exploring the various sources of danger and insecurity that can threaten their safety and well-being. It is crucial for Primary 1 learners in Nigeria to identify potential hazards in their immediate environment—at home, school, and in the community—to enable them to develop basic safety awareness and protective behaviours. Understanding these sources is the first step towards taking precautionary measures and knowing when to seek help.

Teacher activity
