SELLER
I hope this show will help stop teens from using drugs! At the end of my drug unit last semester on an anonymous survey I had students tell me I should make drugs seem more scary and dangerous; so, I created this PowerPoint.
This 25-slide presentation on the dangers of drugs can be shown to teens anytime, or anywhere. If you teach Health, it fits great into your drug unit. It does have graphic pictures so please be advised.
THIS LESSON IS INCLUDED IN THE BEST HEALTH CURRICULUM: A COMPLETE SEMESTER OF HEALTH LESSON PLANS.
These drugs are included in the presentation: hallucinogens, Marijuana, Heroin, Methadone, Oxycodone, GHB, date rape drug, alcohol, Xanax, Diazepam, sleeping pills, inhalants, Methamphetamine, Cocaine, and Ecstasy.
Where I show this presentation in my 9th grade Health class is right in the middle of my drug unit, during the Marijuana lesson. The Marijuana lesson I use is also included.
The focus for this lesson is that pot is a sneaky drug that many teens feel is safe to use and not addictive. While it is true that you don't hear of Marijuana overdose and it is legal in most states for medical use, pot is addictive, it causes "Amotivational Syndrome," and it's also dangerous as a gateway drug because it hooks kids in, and is often the first drug they use as they choose to take that step across the line of not using to using drugs.
I put Marijuana first on the slideshow and mentioned that it's often the gateway into these other drugs. In this way, the other severe, gross, dangerous, fatal effects that the later slides show can be pot's ultimate effects too if it's the way that led teens to those other drugs!

TOP 10 “FAVORITE LESSONS” SERIES: {Click on the description below}
In my 17 years of teaching Health and designing hundreds of lessons, these are my top 10 favorite lessons. First, I love teaching them because they present powerful, and valuable lessons for teens; and second, they’re favorites because they’re engaging and students have fun while they learn.
1. Food Label Scavenger Hunt. This lesson is my #1 seller. After students have read 42 food labels, they totally understand how to decipher the information on any food label!
2. Life Stories Project. The 3-Day project will have your students learning to embrace the hardships that make up their life stories, and sharing personal experiences they might not have otherwise talked about.
3. Alcohol Refusal Skills. This lessons starts with an interactive PowerPoint quiz on “Peer Pressure Lines,” continues with a true story about a dad who allowed his son to have an alcohol party in their basement, and ends with small group role-plays. Very powerful!
4. Fat and Sugar Nutrition Lab: Turn your classroom into a science lab to show your students the fat and sugar in 15 different products. Products sheets are included.
5. Dangerous Decisions Activity. Help Teens Realize the Consequences of 14 different risky behaviors they may be tempted by.
6. “Intervention” Addiction Lesson. Using “Intervention” T.V. Show to teach your students about addiction and treatment. Very powerful. This lesson teaches itself!
7. Nutrition Media Literacy. Have fun showing your students how food manufacturers manipulate us to buy their products. Kids will be surprised by what they learn.
8. Narcotics Dangers “Pharm Parties“ Lesson. Simulate a “Pharmaceutical Party” and help your student understand the dangers of narcotics, including prescription pills.
9. Fast Food Lesson. Help students analyze healthy versus unhealthy fast food restaurant choices.
10. Sexual Pressures Flip Charts. Help your students come up with assertive answers to sexual pressure lines.
This 25-slide presentation on the dangers of drugs can be shown to teens anytime, or anywhere. If you teach Health, it fits great into your drug unit. It does have graphic pictures so please be advised.

Hi Mrs. S.,
Thank you for uploading the Drugs Are Bad information! I downloaded the 25-slide PowerPoint but all that showed up in the folder was the Bingo game. Did the slides not upload properly possibly?
Thank you!

O.K. The Drugs are Bad PowerPoint should load correctly now. Sorry!
Darn it!! I recently revised it and must have clicked the file right above it to upload, so it looks like you got the drug-free BINGO for free!! TPT has the website shut down today during the sale, but as soon as they let me I will upload the correct file and reply again to let you know. Thanks for the heads up! Mrs. S.

I can across your materials this week and think they are wonderful. I am at a high risk school and I am very interested in this PP and Anti-Drug lesson - however when I downloaded it the PP was not included. Do I need to purchase it seperatly? If so, where is it located? Thank you.

Thank you. You could download any of the separate drug units I have by going to my store at:
http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Mrs-S
and browse through and see all the drug lessons. If you only want to spend a few $$ I would start with my "Intervention" lesson, but I would recommend you purchase the 3-week Drug unit. It's $23.00 and it includes all the individual drug lessons I have posted and it's full of great anti-drug information, PowerPoints, projects, tests, packet work, etc. It's at:
http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Drug-Unit-for-Health-Class-3-weeks-213-Slide-PwrPt-Over-30-Docs
Ii's a "Hard Good" item which means you purchase it and then I ship it to you-the file was too huge to be a download purchase-it's full of good stuff!
