3 3.1 What does Guide Dogs do? - Lesson plan Lesson Plan: Introduction Recap on what is already known about Guide Dogs. Remind children that it is a charity that helps blind and visually impaired people lead independent lives through campaigns and fundraising activities. Split the class into 4 groups and give each group a pack of post-its and sheets of A4. Each group should take one of the highlighted wds at a time and write down wds phrases that they think the wd means, keeping a single sheet f each wd e.g. independent not relying on someone else. They should then write down any examples they are familiar with e.g. they may have already been involved in some fundraising projects. They should think about ways they are independent etc. They might also identify some charities. Make sure there are dictionaries and thesauruses available. Bring the groups back together and display all A4 sheets. Did all groups come up with similar ideas and thoughts? Go through all sheets and highlight the most commonly used wds and phrases. Were some wds me difficult to explain than others? Interactive Activity This is a simple quiz, with true false answers. Read each question together and discuss befe deciding on an answer. Most of the infmation has already been visited in previous modules but if children are unsure can t agree, encourage them to find the answers on the Guide Dogs website. To move on click Next question. Activity Idea 1 What Guide Dogs do Use infmation from the quiz to produce a simple poster that highlights the wk and suppt that Guide Dogs give to blind and visually impaired people. Activity Idea 2 Remind children that a big part of Guide Dogs is their promise to supply every blind visually impaired person with a guide dog if they would like one. To help this happen they have their own breeding centre. Ask children to find out me infmation about the Guide Dog National breeding centre. There is infmation here: g.uk/aboutus/national-breeding-centre/. Find out where it is. Use atlases to locate it. If possible use google maps to get a bigger picture of the area. Some prompt questions: In which town is the National Breeding Centre (NBC)? Find out the nearest B road. 3

4 3.1 What does Guide Dogs do? - Lesson plan The NBC is close to a river, which river is it? Thinking about the location of your school is it Nth, South, East West of the breeding centre? Which motways would you travel on if you were going on a visit? Is the NBC open everyday? How much does it cost to go on a tour? Activity Idea 3 What else do Guide Dogs do? Explain that Guide Dogs are committed to making sure that blind and partially sighted children shouldn t lose out on childhood activities because they have no little sight. Very young children can be suppted by mobility instructs. Give out Resource sheet - excerpt from a blog. This blog tells how Emma who is 3 years old is able to take part in dinary activities that most of us take f granted. She is lucky to have a mobility instruct to help her. Make sure children are sitting with a paired reader and see if they can find answers to the following questions. Ask them to highlight the answers with different coloured felt pens. What colour is Emma s cane? What was the first thing that Emma found with her cane? Did she know what it was? How did Becky, her mobility instruct, explain the size and shape? What did Emma do with the gravel? What senses did she use? What was Emma listening to as she felt her way along the pavement? What did Emma do when she came to cross the road? What did Emma play on in the park? Ask children to imagine they are a mobility instruct explaining to a blind child a simple everyday activity. Square off is a phrase in the blog. When a blind person moves independently they need some way of knowing they are going in a straight line. Squaring off is achieved when any two limbs are touching the base of an obstacle, e.g standing with both heels touching the wall. This will help a blind person to start walking in a straight line across the room. The same effect can be achieved by putting both elbows against the wall. 4

5 3.1 What does Guide Dogs do? - Lesson plan Plenary Ask some children to show their posters. Are the messages clear? How would they explain what Guide Dogs do? Home Activity Take home the Resource sheet - quiz and wk through it with a parent/carer. 5

6 Resource sheet - a truly amazing day - excerpt from a blog After lunch Becky took me to the home of Emma, a 3 year old girl who was bn without sight. Emma was delighted that Becky had come to take her to the park and fetched her pink long cane. Firstly, Becky told Emma to square off on her front do to get her bearings. As we walked down the garden path Emma found the wheelie bin with her cane and asked Becky what it was. Becky carefully placed Emma s tiny hands on either side of the bin and then lifted her so that she could feel its size and shape. Then Emma found the gravel, and like any 3 year old she bent down to play with it listening to the pattering noise it made as it dropped to the ground. Then she picked up her cane and used it to find her way along the pavement, listening to the different noises and bumps through the cane that the various surfaces - tarmac, manhole covers and drains - made. Perhaps the most poignant moment of the day was when we came to cross the road to the park. Emma felt the kerb with her cane and then sat down on her bottom so that she could feel the road edge with her feet. Then she stood up, picked up her cane and carefully walked across the road to the park. While we were playing see saw Margery Daw a little boy came to play with Emma. The 2 children happily got on with the serious business of going fwards and backwards down the slide and then the swings (with Emma on Becky s lap) befe it was time f us to take Emma home. She carefully retraced her steps home. Then Becky led Emma through mobility exercises (with singing) befe we left. 6
