Preschool and primary school teachers applied the lesson plans prepared in their schools.

* ‘One day, the teddy bear’s friend, Tombish Frog, asked him to climb a tree to get some honey. But the teddy bear said no. Because his grandfather Tatlıkaşık warned him that there would be bees where there is honey. "
*When deciding on any subject, do we always decide alone?
*How to get support from others when making a decision?
Teacher asks questions to the class. He/She gives an opportunity for every student to answer in the classroom.
* 'Sometimes people also have friends like a chubby frog. Sometimes we can meet adults who want us to do things that can harm us. '
* Yes and no cards are distributed to the students.
* The teacher says, "I will read you some cases, if you think it is right show yes card, I want you to show the no side of your card if you think it is wrong."
* After each answer, learners will be asked to explain about their answer. Especially in cases where the answer is no, disclosure will be emphasized.
yes phrases:
* Help people with visual impairments
* When there is something you do not like on the Internet, you should tell your family.
* You shouldn't talk to people you don't know.

No phrases:
* Your friend says you have to go to the toilet together
* A family friend wants to take you somewhere unaware of your mother.
* Someone you meet while playing games in the park wants to take you home.
Answers from students are listened. The reasons for the no answers are discussed. If we do this behavior, we are asked what we can experience.
* Cards that say yes and no are thrown on the floor in the classroom. Music is opened and they are asked to dance on the cards by jumping.
* Music is stopped. Which student tells a situation to say yes if he is on the yes card. A student tells a situation in which he will say no if he is on the no card.
Assessment Activity:

*How many students showed a 'no' card to no questions.
*How many students said the sentence appropriate for the yes situation?
*How many students said the sentence suitable for the 'no' situation?
*Have the students changed and improved towards making the right decision in their educational status?
Follow Up:
Different stories are read. In this story, we ask how the heroes behave, how they make decisions, and what they experience at the end of these decisions.
Students are taught by starting a story and students continue the story as desired (correct decision).
Notes/Reflections/Reminders
Some students may have different social skills than others, and may not be willing to participate in group work. In such cases, one-to-one studies can be conducted with these students.
Sometimes students can also share some of their extraordinary situations. In this case, it may be necessary to seek support from a qualified person.
