Reinforce health concepts with outside readings selected especially
for students. Each reading is accompanied by a complete Lesson Plan with teaching
strategies, discussion questions, and activities. The Lesson Plans are organized
into three areas: Reading Skills, Cross Curriculum, and Media Literacy. The articles
are intended to be taught along with specific health topics, as indicated, or
can be used anytime to enhance the health classroom by focusing on students’ reading
skills, by introducing a variety of relevant curriculum areas, or to enhance critical
thinking with important media literacy skills.
