0.0 stars

The nine tick and tick-borne disease prevention activities in this package align with the Virginia Standards of Learning for Health and Physical Education for 3rd to 5th grade. Topics include, but are not limited to: how to identify a tick, proper tick-borne disease prevention techniques, and safe tick removal. These active learning activities are presented in a lesson plan-type format and can be used alone or in combination to easily create lessons or a unit. They can be easily modified for use with older school-age students and adult populations.These educational resources were developed by a Health and Physical Educator and a Master Certified Health Education Specialist in support of Virginia House Bill 850. The bill requires the development of school-age-appropriate educational resources for schools and public libraries by 2028 to protect children from Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases.
