What this lesson teaches

There is information a grown-up in your family needs you to know by heart — your full name, your address, and a phone number you can call. There are also rules about who you tell it to. Knowing both keeps you safe.

Worked examples

Example 1

If you got separated at a store, you could tell a store worker your full name and your grown-up's phone number so they can call.

Example 2

You tell your address to a police officer or a firefighter who is helping you. You do not tell it to a stranger who asks online.

Example 3

If someone makes you feel uncomfortable, you can leave and tell a trusted adult. You never have to be polite about that.

Practice questions

  1. Say your full name and your address out loud.
  2. Name two adults you could go to for help.
  3. Who is it safe to tell your phone number to? Who is not?

Estar seguro: tu información y a quién pedirle ayuda

Hay información que un adulto de tu familia necesita que sepas de memoria — tu nombre completo, tu dirección y un número de teléfono al que puedas llamar. También hay reglas sobre a quién se la dices. Saber las dos cosas te mantiene seguro.

Ejemplo 1: Si te separaras de tu familia en una tienda, podrías decirle a un empleado tu nombre completo y el teléfono de tu adulto para que le llame.

Ejemplo 2: Le dices tu dirección a un policía o a un bombero que te está ayudando. No se la dices a un desconocido que te la pide en línea.

Ejemplo 3: Si alguien te hace sentir incómodo, puedes irte y decirle a un adulto de confianza. Nunca tienes que ser amable con eso.
