Lesson Plan
Lesson 2, What is Cyber Bullying?, looks at exclusion as a form of bullying and gives pupils a chance to empathise with those affected by it. It will also motivate them to act responsibly and intervene in a positive and safe way.
How it maps to the curriculum
- 5-6
- SPHE
Strand: Myself & the Wider World
Strand unit: Media education
Content objective: This resource should enable a child to:
- explore and understand how information is conveyed and practise relaying messages using a variety of methods
- explore and use some simple broadcasting, production and communication techniques
- explore the role of newspapers and other forms of print media in transmitting messages, the techniques used and the types of information included
