Run it tomorrow
One mission, built out far enough to teach.
Timings, what to say, what you need, and what to do if a child tells you something. Bilingual, and it works on paper with no devices.
Mission 7 · Pilot-ready25 minAges 8–13, groups of 6–24
Stop · Check · Tell
Dừng lại · Kiểm tra · Nói với người lớn
A complete session plan for a facilitator who has not run this before. If only one of the seven missions ever runs with a group, this is the one worth running.

Run of show
- 3 min
1. Open — a normal thing that went odd
Describe something ordinary online that turned uncomfortable. Do not use a real child's story. Ask: what would you do next?
- 5 min
2. The three words
Introduce stop, check, tell. Say each aloud together once. Do not explain all three before saying them — say them first, explain after.
- 8 min
3. Practise on something safe
Give a claim an AI got wrong. Let them check it in two places. The point is that checking is easy and normal, not clever.
- 6 min
4. Who are your trusted adults?
Each child names two, and writes them down. A teacher or school counsellor counts. Do not require it to be a parent — for some children it cannot be.
- 3 min
5. Take the agreement home
Hand out the family agreement. It is signed at home, not here, and it is not collected back in.
What you need
- Printed family agreement, one per child
- Somewhere to write two names
- One AI answer that is wrong, prepared in advance
- No devices required — this works on paper
Take home
- We will tell each other when we use AI for something that matters.
- We will not put our names, address, school or passwords into a chat box.
- We will check anything surprising in two other places before repeating it.
- …and three more on the agreement itself.
Safeguarding
- If a child discloses something concerning, stop the activity. Do not question them in front of the group.
- Follow your organisation's child protection procedure. This mission does not replace it and does not qualify you.
- Never promise a child you will keep what they tell you secret.
- QUANT is not part of that process. Nothing a child says is recorded here.
Free to run and free to reproduce for teaching. No sign-up, no tracking, nothing recorded about any child who takes part.
For schools, community groups and workplaces
The missions, the passport and the family agreement are free to use and free to reproduce for teaching. If you are running them with a group and want the materials in another language, or reviewed for your context, ask — that is what the support programme funds.
