Good Morning Grade 5B! Who would like to share about what they did over the weekend?
Diapositiva: 3
OMG it's basically about how the Chinese government is tracking citizens and controlling what they do!!!
Sure Ryan! What interesting news do you have to share?
Diapositiva: 4
That sounds scary and crazy!!

I agree, but Ms. Thiru, is this true or fake news?
That's a great question Reda!

We can't always believe what we hear or read on the news or on social media. We need to make sure the information is reliable and trustworthy before sharing such news to anyone.

Let's head to the library and computer room to follow the 4 vital steps to find out if this piece of information is true or fake news
Diapositiva: 8
The first step involves using safe fact checking tools such as these websites - Snopes.com- Politifact
Ms. Thiru, I don't see this article on Snopes or Politifact!
Diapositiva: 9
That's okay Ryan, we're all learning! The next step is to find the original source; where the information was first shared and posted about.
Oh, I heard it on Tik Tok and did not even bother to check on any other sites!

Ms. Thiru, does that mean we need to open old school textbooks and search through the library?
No Ryan, I think we can copy images from the article to cross-reference it's credibility through Google Searches!
That's right class! Let's move on.

Diapositiva: 12
Step 4: Check other sources
Oh wow! I learnt so much today! Thanks Ms Thiru.
Oh and we also have to be critically thinking about context and consensus of these topics before further sharing them on various platforms or believing them.
