I am Somebody (Life Skills 9-13)
Education
Today’s episode will focus on Say no to Drugs!
Why do you think we choose this topic? We chose it because it is important for young people to understand the facts about drugs and alcohol, including the risks involved in using them, so that they can make good decisions for their health and wellbeing.
After this episode, you will be able to:
i) Define terms such as drugs, dependence, and addiction
ii) Recognise what are legal and illegal drugs
iii) Explain some of the negative impacts drugs and alcohol can have in your life
iv) Reflect on how peer pressure can negatively influence young people’s choices about drugs and alcohol
