No, it is not legal for you to show pornography during class. Firstly, displaying pornographic material in education settings is against the law and can lead to serious consequences. Secondly, sex education should always be age-appropriate and tailored to the individuals in your classroom, so displaying hardcore porn would not be appropriate or necessary for any educational purpose. Thirdly, even if you are showing material for humor or shock value this could cause confusion and distress among your students and may even violate their privacy.  Finally, minors who view porn are more likely to view violence as acceptable behaviour which can negatively impact their learning environment in the classroom as well as social norms outside of school.

No, showing porn during class would not be legal as it would constitute distributing obscene material to minors.
