Beginning with a teacher-led discussion, students will engage in a whole-class conversation about peer pressure. Learning includes reflecting on times when they’ve been subjected to peer pressure, understanding how peer pressure impacts healthy decision making, identifying strategies to cope with peer pressure, and concludes with students independently sharing something they wish their teacher knew.

Goals:

  • Understanding the impact of peer pressure
  • Building community within a classroom of learners

OBJECTIVES:

  • Analyze the influence of family, peers, culture, media, technology, and other factors on health behaviors
  • Identify strategies to cope with peer pressure.
  • Demonstrate the ability to use decision-making skills to enhance health and goal setting
  • Communicate through written and visual language.
