Alcohol Lesson September 2024
Foundations for a great lesson! Use Be respectful appropriate language
Starter Activity: All About Alcohol Write down everything you know about alcohol. Include as much detail as possible as we will look back over this at the end of the lesson to compare what we have learned in the lesson today.
Learning Objectives By the end of this lesson, pupils should be able to: Explain what alcohol is Understand and be able to explain the relationship between ABV and Units Have knowledge of the law around purchasing and consuming alcohol Explain the risk of excessive drinking and the harm to young people
What is alcohol? Sort the statement cards about alcohol into two piles, one that is true and one that is false.
Watch & learn: Alcohol units Now we have learned that alcohol has different strengths (ABV), we can take this learning to start to appreciate that the higher the strength of the alcohol, the percentage of the Alcohol By Volume, the less of it is needed to make up one unit.
Watch & learn: Risks of alcohol After watching the video, discuss why young people may be at even greater risk if drinking alcohol underage.
Create Your Own Diary Alcohol consumed Day of the week Create two versions of a weekly drinking diary. Monday Alcohol Free Day 4 pints of beer One version is of someone who stays within the recommended 14 units per week, including having several drink-free days. Tuesday 1 pint of cider 1 Double Whiskey and Mixer 1 bottle of red wine The other is of someone who drinks more than the recommended weekly number of units in a week. 2 x Vodka and Mixer Include what they have to drink on each day in both examples.
Make a game of it! Take all of your learning from today as well as knowledge you already have relating to alcohol and in pairs/small groups, create a game for younger people to learn about alcohol.
Harm Reduction Advice As with any harm reduction, the advice remains that if you do not currently drink excessive amounts of alcohol, the best form of harm reduction is not to start. Avoid caffeine when drinking or after alcohol Remember, it takes your body approximately an hour per unit of alcohol to recover and process the alcohol Do not mix alcohol with other drugs. Stay safe and with people you know and trust if you have drank too much If you are worried about yourself or a friend, call 111 or 999 if it is an emergency When drinking, there are things that can reduce the risk of harm, these include: Drinking in line with recommended daily amounts Having several alcohol free days to factor in enough recovery time Alternate between water or a soft drink after an alcoholic drink
