P5/6 Learning about Peer Pressure

Primary 5, Primary 5/6, Primary 6, Primary 6/7, Primary 7

P5/6 have been exploring how to say ‘NO’ to peer pressure situations that might make them feel uncomfortable in the future. We’ve learned that there are many ways to say ‘NO’, but the best way is to be Assertive: look the person in the eye, stand up straight and say firmly, “NO, I don’t want to.”

Look at our models of different, less effective ways to say ‘NO’.

We’ve also been learning about ‘tricks’ people use to put pressure on others to say or do something that makes them uncomfortable. We made up drama sketches for scenarios and our classmates had to explain if the peer pressure was spoken or unspoken, who was being pressured and which ‘trick’ was being used against them.

Some tricks include ‘The Huddle’, ‘The Look’ and ‘Reasoning’.
