someone you know is being bullied. As the students would have been exposed to the online environment, they
should have a reasonable understanding about the ways that they can remain safe whilst online.

Lesson differentiation: Catering for varied ability/ interest/ readiness levels.

Identify any class activities that allow students to access different content (what),
process/support (how) or evaluation (assessment of outcome performance).
Content (what): Interest levels will drive student questions/discussion (content) at different student
readiness levels. The creation of the anti-bullying song or poem should be accessible to all students,
however the quality of these will differ between students.
Process/Support (how): Provision of written, active, visual and verbal activities. The brainstorm on the
Board about being safe online is both a verbal activity and a visual one. Students complete a written task
In the creation of their poems or songs, and an active game of charades.
Evaluation (assessment of outcome performance):
Level of responses and critical thinking will be indicative of student achievement, as well as completion
Of the song or poem.
