Family Life Programme - Uganda

A Key Stage 2 teaching resource split over two lessons which explores family life in rural Uganda. Children learn about how poverty and lack of resources affect families and how their family life differs from, and has the same concerns as, family life in the UK. The children learn about the things which make the lives of mothers, in particular, hard. Extension activities give the children the opportunity to have creative ideas on how they would tackle these problems and involve writing activities to connect their community with those in Uganda. Visual resource and worksheets supplied.

This resource would be a useful focus for Mother's Day, but will be effective all year round.
