Game teaching guide
What children will practise
Know what addictive substances are, that alcohol and cigarettes harm health even though legal, why children must never drink, and practise effective refusal, including what a good friend should do.
What's in the worksheet
6 multiple-choice questions, 3 options each - Addictive substances make the body dependent - If offered, refuse and tell an adult (distractor: try it just once) - Effective refusal is clear words and walking away - Children must never drink because the brain is still developing - If a friend uses drugs, urge them to stop and tell an adult (distractor: urge them to stop but tell no one)
How to use it in class
Use in the substances unit; about 6 minutes. - Play solo so children answer for themselves without peer pressure - After question 3, have pairs role-play: one offers, the other refuses clearly and walks away - For question 6, discuss that telling an adult is not telling tales but helping a friend - Play it linked to the class to record results in the mark book.
Common sticking points
- Question 6: 'urge them to stop but tell no one' matches children's reluctance to tell tales, so many pick it; show the friend needs adult help - Question 3: 'laugh and change the subject' is what children really do to keep friends; point out the person will ask again - Question 1: 'only illegal substances' reflects the belief that drugs means illegal things; question 4 helps correct it - Question 5: 'because children cannot buy it' is the reason children actually see in daily life
