Introduce the topic and set the tone for the session. Briefly explain what will be covered in today's lesson.

Define peer pressure in simple terms and include examples relevant for 6th graders. Ask students if they have heard the term before and what they think it means.

Facilitate a class discussion by asking guided questions: 'Have you ever felt pressured by friends?' and 'How did that make you feel?' Use the whiteboard to note down key points.

Transition to session 2. Recap key points from the first session and introduce the focus on developing strategies to handle peer pressure.

Explain refusal skills clearly. Use simple language and maybe a short story to illustrate how one can say no confidently.

Guide students through a role-play activity. Ensure groups have clear instructions and can practice the scenarios provided in the Interactive Role-Play Guide.

Wrap up the lesson with a reflection discussion. Ask students to share what they learned about handling peer pressure. Encourage open discussion and self-reflection.
