Let's Discuss Rights and Responsibilities Discussion Cards

Growing into adulthood from childhood is tricky for everyone, as young people are not only confronted with physical changes, but also have to deal with shifts in their intellectual and social development. Let's Discuss Rights and Responsibilities Discussion Cards are designed to get teens thinking about citizenship in a thoughtful way. Ideal for students aged between ten and sixteen, these cards assist young people to talk about the issues they are confronted with day-to-day in a considered manner.

What Subjects Are Explored in Rights and Responsibilities?

A variety of topics are covered in the Let's Discuss Rights and Responsibilities Discussion Cards cards, including:

• Cyber-bullying
• Gambling
• Eating disorders
• Smoking
• Peer pressure
• Drugs and alcohol
• Internet safety

Promote Considered Thinking About Laws

The matters addressed in each set of cards encourage students to focus on all aspects of citizenship, including the difference between acceptable and anti-social behaviours, and what weight they carry by the law. Students can work in small groups, either working on the same or different topics, and engage in tasks that encourage them to research and think critically about each issue.

The exercise could even be extended so that students can conduct research at home and present their detailed findings, supported by fact and figures, in a report.
