2 HOURS, fully resourced PSHE lesson all about role models, current social media influencers and the positive and negative influence they can have. The lesson follows a girl called Shelly, who wants to look like her idols, the Kardashians, before investigating more thoroughly the link between role models and self-esteem. A large part of the lesson investigates the lack of positive role models for young people in the media and sets students the challenge of establishing what makes a positive role model, before researching whether they can find celebs and public figures that meet their criteria.
This resource pack includes a 2 hour long PowerPoint with accompanying worksheets, well differentiated activities, literacy focus tasks, clip tasks with three-way differentiated questions and information sheets.
The lesson has been left editable and is filled with engaging, well differentiated and fun activities. It is useful for PSHE, Citizenship or Tutor Time. As with all our lessons, you don’t need any prior knowledge as all the information is included - you can just pick up and teach it.

GCSE CITIZENSHIP 9-1
Introducing a new International Women’s Day Assembly designed to celebrate this year’s theme of ‘inspiring inclusion’. Suitable for use with either UKS2 or KS3, this thought-provoking and inspirational assembly delves into gender equality, examining its historical significance and why this International Women’s Day is profoundly important.
We will discuss the courageous, trailblazing women of the past who endured brutal repercussions for their vigilante efforts to secure women’s suffrage, granting them the right to vote. We will reflect on what it would have been like to be a woman at the turn of the 20th century, when much of women’s lives were micromanaged by men, and discuss how the actions of righteous, awe-inspiring women changed history for the better.
Finally, we will reflect on what gender equality means today and why the fight for equality is an ongoing, global responsibility. The assembly incorporates a short video clip as well as interactive elements to keep your students engaged. With all the clips included, the assembly is expected to last approximately 15-20 minutes. The PowerPoint presentation is fully editable, except for the background image.

A detailed reading comprehension all about the recent ‘Momo Challenge’ (no pictures of Momo included) and the dangers of online challenges that this hoax has highlighted. This reading comprehension includes three sets of differentiated challenge questions, so with reading, discussion and answering the questions this will keep a group busy for 25-30 mins. It is perfect for Form Time or an activity in any English or PSHE lesson.
The article, written by journalist R E Hunt (who has kindly let us share her work) investigates the irony behind the Momo Challenge - where the fear and harm from the sight of Momo were actually spread by the news media trying to warn parents about it. The article contains a serious message - Momo was a hoax - but a hoax based upon reality. It reiterates how young people can stay safe and use their critical thinking skills not to fall victim to future Momos.

Highlight their ‘do it now’ task, such as 'Write a detailed conclusion evaluating (add in subject), considering (add in item) and weighing up the pros and cons of each, reaching a conclusion, with exceptional SPAG.
On the same page their is a green-shaded box for them to demonstrate immediate progress through the ‘do it now’ task. They can then stick it in their books and you can return to see it or show it as evidence any time!
