Before you play
Game teaching guide
What children will practise
Understand why drugs are hard to quit, their impact on families, the legal penalty for possession, effective refusal skills, how to help an addicted friend, and distinguish the ONCB hotline 1386 from Thanyarak's quit-drugs hotline 1165.
What's in the worksheet
6 multiple-choice questions, 3 options each - Drugs are hard to quit because body and brain adapt and become dependent - Effect on families: lost income and lost trust - Possessing illegal drugs brings prison and fines (distractor: fine if only a little) - Effective refusal: speak clearly and walk away - If a friend is addicted, urge them to get help and tell an adult; the game gives 1165; ONCB is 1386 and Thanyarak is 1165
How to use it in class
Use in the Grade 6 substances unit; about 6 minutes. - Play solo to reduce peer pressure - For question 4, role-play in threes: one offers, one refuses, one observes and rates how clear the refusal was - For question 1, explain withdrawal without going into how drugs are taken - Play it linked to the class to record results in the mark book. - For the hotline item, do not call 1165 the ONCB number: ONCB is 1386, while Thanyarak has the quit-drugs helpline 1165
Common sticking points
- Question 5: 'drop them at once' and 'keep it secret to be loyal' are the two options children this age really weigh, protecting themselves or their friend; explain that telling an adult is helping - Question 1: 'users have no willpower' echoes judgemental views children hear from adults - Question 6: 1669 is a well-known health emergency number and may be picked - Question 3: 'only sellers are guilty' is a common misunderstanding
