    Misinformation<\/h1>

    <\/i>Key Learning Objectives<\/h3>
    • <\/i><\/span>Describe what misinformation is, why it exists, and how it can be harmful to others.<\/li>
    • <\/i><\/span>Correctly identify examples of misinformation.<\/li>
    • <\/i><\/span>Determine what action to take if you come across potential misinformation.<\/li><\/ul>

      <\/i>Just 4 steps to complete the episode!<\/h3>
      1. 1.<\/strong><\/span>Watch the short 3-minute animated video with the children. Play it a few times!<\/li>
      2. 2.<\/strong><\/span>Discuss the video with the children using our conversation guide to help you.<\/li>
      3. 3.<\/strong><\/span>Ask each child to complete the Kahoot! Quiz below.<\/li>
      4. 4.<\/strong><\/span>Print the Activity Sheet – a fun homework activity for children.<\/li> <\/ol>
        <\/i> <\/div>
        It is strongly recommended that each episode is delivered by a parent or teacher to children for maximum educational impact. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>
