Consequences of Telling Deliberate Lies: Exploring Lying for Children
Consequences of Deliberate Lies is a resource used to explore lies and the thoughts/feelings/consequences of telling lies. This involves 3 separate scenarios that explore different situations or reasons why young people may tell a deliberate lie. It encourages the child to think about the different thoughts, feelings and consequences associated with each scenario.
Suitable for KS2 or whole-class KS1 discussion prompts.
This resource forms part of our collection on lies, fibs and lying. All of these resources have been designed to support children with understanding what lying is and why it is important to be honest.
How could this resource be used?
- To support children to identify when other people might be telling lies and why.
- To explore what people may think when they tell lies.
- To think about what they could instead of lying.
- To support children to understand what a lie is, the consequences of lying and being honest.
- To support a child 1:1.
- To form a class discussion surrounding each scenario. This activity would work well if completed as a group.
