“Sexual harassment” Worksheet / life skills

The students are divided in groups of 4-5 students. Each group receives a version of the worksheet “True-False 1 and 2”. The students should circle “true (T)” for the statements they think are true and false for the statements they think are false. When the groups are done the teacher reads the statements and the groups answer. After a group answers the teacher asks some of the students from the group, or maybe a student from another group, whoever feels comfortable enough to express their opinion. The teacher reads the answers from his/her worksheet in the end.
