No, Go, and Tell! Marilyn A Pittelli

NO, GO, And TELL! Ms. Clementine's Personal Safety Lesson is an empowering and comprehensive sexual abuse prevention lesson written for five to nine year olds. This story follows Ms. Clementine, a health teacher, visiting an elementary school classroom to share a message about personal safety. During the lesson, the students discuss and learn different types of touches and feelings, including appropriate and inappropriate touching and viewing of their private parts. On a whiteboard slide presentation, Ms. Clementine reviews body part names, followed by teaching three important safety words that will give children the power to protect themselves from touches and feelings they don't like. At the end of the lesson, when one of the students privately shares with Ms. Clementine that she had a bad touch, Ms. Clementine knows exactly what to do and say to make her feel better and safe.
