Group Chats

This group chat resource contains a collection of activities to use with children aged 9-13, to explore the positives of group chats as well as the possible challenges they may face.

The resource is divided into four different topics:

• Starting conversations with young people about group chats, including the positives and negatives
• Digital wellbeing (how group chats may make people feel)
• Online bullying and gossip
• Inappropriate content

Each topic is accompanied by examples to support learning and to refer to when having discussions. There is also teacher guidance available for each topic, where you will find various questions to ask as well as important messages and advice to share with the young people.
