At 18, a person becomes an adult and has all the responsibilities and freedoms of an adult. However, a person does not get all of this at once. Indeed, from year to year, a young person accumulates freedoms and responsibilities in society. As students spend long hours under your supervision at school, it is essential to explain to them what they can do or what he or she should be responsible for.
This teaching toolkit includes a PowerPoint presentation which has a lot of information in the notes. In these notes, we explain in more detail the information given in the slides, offer avenues for further reflection and provide legal sources. To ensure that the students have properly integrated their new knowledge, the student’s guide offers many activities.
