01 / UNDERSTAND

Here is what is happening.

A message on a screen is not automatically trustworthy. If it asks for a password, code or private detail, stop and ask a trusted adult. You do not have to respond quickly just because a message says “hurry”. Practise with imaginary messages, never real passwords.

Pause. Make the idea your own.

Explain one idea to a partner, draw it or write it in your own words. Which part is an observation, an example or a question?

You can use a home language. No need to share personal experiences or finish everything in one sitting.
02 / MAKE IT YOUR OWN

Your little investigation

What you need

Paper and a pencil, or a partner to talk with. Drawing and speaking are welcome.

  1. Read this imaginary message: “Send your secret code to win a toy.”

  2. Point to the request for a secret and the pressure to respond.

  3. Practise saying, “I will ask my trusted adult first.”

03 / CHECK YOUR UNDERSTANDING
