# Slides 5.1: Clothing for Roles, Activities, Weather, and Safety Slide outline for Lesson 5.1, one day, twelve slides. The real objects on the front table do most of the work today; the slides are the frame and the backup. [Sal: photograph your own PPE box once and the slides are permanent.] ## Slide 1: Make It, Mend It, Wear It - Unit 5 starts today - Four weeks: what we wear and why, hand sewing, smart shopping, and one upcycle project - Nobody touches a needle for four more days - Today: what clothing has to do Image: a split picture, one side a folded stack of everyday clothes, the other side a sewing kit with a needle, pins, and thread. Notes: Tell them the shape of the unit in thirty seconds. Students who think this unit is only sewing will check out on day one if you do not. ## Slide 2: Do now - It is 38 degrees tomorrow, windy, and it might rain - Write the five things you would wear, top to bottom - Circle the one you would be sorriest to leave home without - Three minutes Image: a thermometer reading 38 degrees next to a bare tree with wind lines. ## Slide 3: Same foot, two shoes - One of these is not allowed in this room - Also not allowed: a restaurant kitchen, a construction site, a hospital, the stage crew - Same person. Same foot. Why does a shoe get a rule? Image: a flip-flop and a closed-toe sneaker side by side on a table. Notes: Hold up the actual shoes. Take two guesses, do not confirm yet. The answer arrives on slide 5. ## Slide 4: Clothing has four jobs 1. Protect the body 2. Fit the activity 3. Fit the setting 4. Say something Image: four small icons in a row, a coat, a running figure, a building, and a speech bubble. Notes: Students write these in Part 1 of the handout with their own examples, not the ones on the slide. Say that job 4 is tomorrow's whole lesson and park it. ## Slide 5: Job 1, protect - From cold, sun, rain, heat, sparks, cuts, chemicals - Personal protective equipment, or PPE, is clothing whose only job is protection - The state's line: workers wear protective clothing and gear when they use tools, machines, and equipment Image: an oven mitt, safety goggles, a work glove, and a hard hat laid out on a table. Notes: This is the slide the shoe question answers. A closed-toe shoe is PPE: a dropped pan, a dropped iron, a dropped pair of shears. ## Slide 6: Job 2, fit the activity - The body has to move: run, bend, reach, kneel, climb - Clothing that stops the movement is the wrong clothing - Try this: what job could you not do wearing a work glove? Image: a heavy leather work glove next to a sewing needle and thread. Notes: Pass the glove around and hold up the needle. The answer teaches job 2 in five seconds. ## Slide 7: Job 3, fit the setting - Every place has an expectation, spoken or not - Home, school, a job, a wedding, a funeral, a court, a field - The state's line: compare the similarities and differences among home, school, community, and work environments Image: four doorways in a row labeled home, school, work, community. ## Slide 8: The PPE walk - We are going to the front table - For each item, three questions: what does it protect, what happens without it, where is it required - Fill in Part 2 of the handout as we go Image: a table laid out with an apron, an oven mitt, goggles, a hair tie, two shoes, a work glove, a vest, and a helmet. Notes: Twenty seconds per item, eight items. Two volunteers model the apron and the hair tie. ## Slide 9: Match the clothing to the situation - Five cards around the room, one minute each - Head, body, legs, feet. Do not forget the feet. - Then the sentence: "This works because the weather is ___, the activity is ___, and the setting is ___." Image: five numbered cards on classroom walls, labeled interview, construction site, wedding, soccer game, cold walk. Notes: Pairs. Rotate on the bell. Push on footwear and weather at every card. ## Slide 10: Dress codes, three real ones - A restaurant kitchen: closed-toe non-slip shoes, hair back, no loose jewelry - A hospital: scrubs, no long nails, no rings in a sterile room - This school: [Sal: paste the exact wording from the handbook] - Sort each rule: safety, sanitation, image, team identity. Most are more than one. Image: three uniformed figures, a line cook, a nurse, and a student, drawn simply with no faces. Notes: Keep this to the reasoning. Do not run a debate about this building's code. If the earlier hand vote was high, give this school's line ninety seconds and move. ## Slide 11: A rule can protect and still cost something - Money: non-slip shoes cost 40 dollars and you only need them at work - Comfort: a hair net in August - Self-expression: no visible tattoos, no jewelry - Both things are true at once. That is the honest version. Image: a balance scale, one side labeled "what it protects," the other "what it costs." ## Slide 12: This room's rule, starting next week - Closed-toe shoes - Hair back - Sleeves clear at the sewing stations and at the iron - Same standard as the kitchen. I will tell you the day before we need it. Image: the sewing station kit photo with a pair of closed-toe shoes and a hair tie next to it. Notes: Exit card: one protective item you will wear here and what it protects; the situation where your first outfit was wrong; one question. Three students read line one.
