SLOVENIA'S 5 CORE VALUES

STRIP

Objective Understanding cause and effect.

Activity

• Pupils draw a comic strip (3–6 frames):
  • Lie → Plot twist → Revelation → Consequence.
• Emphasis: A lie always has consequences.

Foreword:

A brief chat:

• What does cause mean?
• A consequence is the result or effect of an action or condition.
• Does every action have a consequence?

Together, you will find an example from everyday life (e.g., forgotten homework).

On the board you write the diagram: Cause → Complication → Revelation → Consequence

MIDDLE PART

1. Task explanation – comic strip

• Pupils draw a comic strip with 3–6 panels which depicts:
  • A lie cause,
  • Plot trouble due to lies,
  • Disclosure The truth will come out.,
  • Consequence (what happens, how they feel).
• The teacher emphasises:
  • Incorrect order of events,
  • simple dialogues in speech bubbles,
  • emphasis on the consequence, not the punishment.

2. Independent work

• The students choose a topic (school, home, friends, game).
• During the activity, the teacher encourages reflection with questions:
  • What would happen if I didn't lie?
  • Would the outcome have been different?

CONCLUSION (10 minutes):

Volunteers present their comics.

Group conversation

• What cause led to the biggest problems?
• What were the most difficult consequences?

Concluding thought: »When we choose to lie, we also choose the consequences."
