Sheffield NHS Library Resources

The Sheffield NHS Library has several resources available to lend for an initial three week period which can be renewed if other bookings permit. The following resources are currently available:

  • Baby Tar: this is a baby bottle filled with smoker's tar and cigarettes and butts. It illustrates how smoking when pregnant or smoking around babies and children is like making them drink or breathe the tar. This could help with a discussion or to show how tar in second-hand cigarette smoke can harm children and babies (Cat No 16303)
  • Tar in the Jar: the tar in a jar demonstrates the amount of tar in tobacco smoke and helps to explain to smokers what causes cancer, bronchitis and emphysema. The jar shows that an average 15 to 20 a day smoker takes about half a litre of brown, sticky tar into their lungs every year (Cat No 16302)
  • Tobacco Ball: inflatable ball with questions relating to the dangers of smoking and smokeless tobacco. Answer sheet and play instructions included. Key stages 2, 3 and 4 (Cat No 16304)
  • Kick it - Junk Food: this DVD focuses on the disadvantages of eating junk food. It covers topics such as what 'junk food' means, why is it bad for our bodies, healthier options, examples of healthier meals and a fun game show 'fruit machine'. Key stages 2, 3 (Cat No 16305)

Trial and Error DVD – Y7 to Y9 Resources

Trial and error is a free resource that explores crime from a young person's point of view. It follows the experience of Joby, a first time offender and raises issues such as peer pressure.

The story focuses upon the theft of a mobile phone and the impact of this crime on the offenders as well as the victim. It also looks at how the parents of the offenders and victim are affected by this crime and the dilemmas the witness has to face.

The video shows the different ways that crime is dealt with by the Criminal Justice System, with input from the Police, the Crown Prosecution Service, Victim Support and Witness Services, all working in partnership towards the appropriate outcome. A prison sentence is the ultimate punishment.

This drama features young people from South Yorkshire and a cast of adults mostly drawn from the Local Criminal Justice System. The video can be used in a variety of both formal and informal setting and Teacher's Notes accompany the resource.

This resource is aimed at Y7 to Y9 and was designed to fit into the PHSE curriculum.

Please click here to access it (along with the teacher's notes) on our website.

And then click on the Trial and Error tab on the left-hand side of the page.

Teachers can either go to the website and download it or they can contact me on the below and I can supply it in hard copy.
