Learning objective
- To begin to understand the influence others have on us and how we can make our own decisions.
Statutory guidance
Pupils should know:
- The facts about legal and illegal harmful substances and associated risks, including smoking, alcohol use and drug-taking
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Could focus on the first scenario only as this is likely to be more in their own experience. They might also find it useful to role-play in a pair some of their ideas, with one person being for and the other against. Work with these children to practise resisting peer pressure in the wrapping up section of the lesson or ensure they are working with a partner they feel comfortable with.
Pupils working at greater depth: Can be challenged to suggest what the character could say to make their decision clear in the Activity: Making decisions. They could also suggest who might be able to help in each situation. Children could also write their own scenario which they could swap with other groups working at greater depth.
