This lesson is one of my best! It's 2-Days and is really impactful. That is why it's part of my "Top 10 Favorite Lessons Series!" (See links below).

By analyzing two young men and their families struggle with addiction, students will gain understanding of risk factors for addiction, and many students will also take away positive suggestions for risk factors they may be facing in their own lives.

THIS LESSON IS INCLUDED IN THE BEST HEALTH CURRICULUM: A COMPLETE SEMESTER OF HEALTH LESSON PLANS AND IS ALSO PART OF THE " DRUG UNIT." (See links below)

This lesson can go with almost any episode of the T.V. show "Intervention," which can be downloaded for free or for purchase from:

INTERVENTION

This lesson has complete teacher directions that follow a 34-slide Intervention Lesson PowerPoint. It also includes a separate 30-slide PowerPoint Quiz that introduces 10 risk factors for addiction. Students use a worksheet to guess the answers and then ponder their own childhood to see how many risk factors they may have in their life. (that's 64 PowerPoint slides total!)

Students will also explore local resources for treatment of addictions.

Next, students will watch an episode of "Intervention" (which you can download free from online, or tape from T.V., or purchase online). They will fill out a reflective video review worksheet where they will analyze the signs of each of the 10 risk factors in the addicts on the show.

After the video students will be put into groups and will come up with ways the addicts could have positively dealt with several risk factors rather than turning to drugs or alcohol. The video review "key" is also included.

This lesson created a lot of deep conversation for my students. Many are facing similar risk factors in their own lives or they have loved ones who are battling addiction. It really helped them see the temptations and dangers of drugs and alcohol, and it helped them more clearly understand the hard road that addiction brings. I hope it also inspired them to make smart decisions in their own lives.

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.
