Personal & Social Development Responsible Decision-Making Language 5–8 yrs

Vocabulary: making decisions and keeping safe

词汇：做决定与保持安全

Description

Know and use the vocabulary of making decisions and keeping safe — choice, consequence, rule, safe, fair, honest, trusted adult, and right and wrong — and understand that naming these ideas clearly helps make better choices

Mastery Evidence

✓ Explain what 'consequence' means and give an example of a positive and a negative consequence of a choice
✓ Use 'responsible' and 'safe' correctly when talking about everyday decisions — e.g. 'The responsible choice is to tell an adult'
✓ Define 'rule' and 'fairness' and explain why rules exist using their own examples from school or home

Assessment Prompt

If your child faces a situation where they need to make a choice — like whether to tell the truth about something that went wrong — can they talk through what might happen using words like 'consequence' and 'fair'?
