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.
Students will completely understand how to eat a balanced day of food from all the Food Pyramid food groups after completing the 4 revealing sections of this lesson. Full step-by step teacher directions that follow a 33-slide PowerPoint will take you through lesson.

Fawn: I just saw this notice. Did you ever get this to open? No one else has seemed to have problems since I put it in both Word and PDF format, but I'd be happy to resend it to you. Let me know. Mrs. S.

Good idea to arrange ideas in this way, however, carried out in a far-from-ideal way. I will spend half an hour editing this document the before it is of any use. Documents of this type should be converted to PDF, not MS Word format, for sale. Not happy with this purchase.

Hi. I saw your response and I totally apologize. I am new to posting things, so I didn't know the formatting would be off. I already reposted it again in PDF format, so if you want to send me your email address I can email the PDF version to you. Do you post everything you do in PDF rather than Word?? Thanks for your feedback, Mrs. Steele
