Now, let's go through each sentence and choose the correct word(s):

1. "The body is special, ____________ and unique."

- The best fit here is valuable, because it matches the idea of being special and unique.
- ✔ Answer: *valuable*

2. "The parts of the body covered by a swimming suit are the parts that are always ____________."

- These are the private parts, as shown in the illustration and explained at the top.
- ✔ Answer: *private*

3. "Any touching on those parts of the body, any secret touching, or any touching that makes you feel uncomfortable, worried or upset should be ____________ to an adult you trust."

- If something feels wrong, you should report it.
- ✔ Answer: *reported*

4. "Good or ____________ touches are healthy and make you feel safe and ____________ e.g. pat on the back, hugs, etc."

- "Good" touches are fondling? No — that’s not correct in this context. Wait — fondling is actually a term for inappropriate touching, so it must go in the “bad” category.
- So, good touches are comfortable and make you feel safe.
- First blank: comfortable (good touches are comforting)
- Second blank: safe
- ✔ Answers: *comfortable*, *safe*

5. "Bad or ____________ touches make you feel confused, frightened or ____________."

- Bad touches are unsafe or uncomfortable.
- The first blank: unsafe (as a contrast to "safe" above)
- The second blank: uncomfortable (since it matches the feeling of being frightened or confused)
- ✔ Answers: *unsafe*, *uncomfortable*

6. "This type of touching includes kissing, and touching or ____________ private parts, pushing, shoving, hitting, etc."

- This refers to inappropriate physical contact. The word fondling fits here — it means unwanted or improper touching.
- ✔ Answer: *fondling*
