40-minute teacher-led lesson (Grade 4–6)
Goal: build a simple habit for judging online information
Focus on 3-step check routine:
Who posted it?
What is the evidence?
What is the motive?
Students learn to decide:
Trust / Ignore / Verify
Emphasis on practice over theory
Teacher shows posts one by one Includes:
Misleading examples
At least one trustworthy example
Students:
Analyze individually
Use role + tool cards
Then: Share observations from different roles
👉 Purpose:
Connect 3-step check → real examples;Practice multiple perspectives;Acts as guided practice
Fast sequence of posts (simulate social media feed)
Students:
Signal when something is suspicious
Identify which step applies:
Source / Evidence / Motive
Teacher pauses for discussion
👉 Key learning:
Train students to pause before reacting;Build quick judgment habit;More interactive & reactive than Activity 1
Small groups (≈4 students, mixed roles)
Task:
