No, go, tell
Demonstrate and rehearse a protective response to unsafe situations: say 'no' clearly, get away, and tell a trusted adult — and keep telling until someone helps. Know that if someone hurts them or touches them in a way that is not OK, it is never their fault, even if they froze, couldn't say no or couldn't get away, and they can still tell

1 approach
No, go, tell means rehearsing no, go, tell—and knowing it is never their fault if they could not do those steps. We will practise once together, then check a fresh example.
Spend about 12 minutes rehearsing No–Go–Tell with calm role-play language, then checking a fresh tell plan.
