1 9 th Grade

2  You are going to become the “expert” on the drug I assigned you. Your job in a few minutes will be to “teach” the other students in small groups about your assigned drug.  In your group, you will work to answer these questions about your drug(s). Your group will have 10 minutes to answer the questions assigned.

3 1) What type of drug is it? (classification and give examples) 2) What are the slang names for this drug? 3) How is this drug taken? 4) Is this drug legal or illegal? 5) Does this drug cause addiction? 6) What are the short-term effects of this drug? 7) What are the long-term effects of this drug? 8) Are there other interesting facts or information about this drug that you think your classmates need to know?

4 Return to your original cooperative learning group. In each group, there will be an “expert” for each drug learned in the jigsaw activity. Give each person 3-5 minutes to share the information about their assigned drug. You need to listen and be respectful when your peers are sharing information about their assigned drug.

5  Which drugs are illegal?  Which drugs are legal?  What are some important facts that you learned about a specific drug today? ◦ Marijuana ◦ Methamphetamine ◦ Prescription Medications ◦ Over-the-Counter Medicines ◦ Alcohol

6  Are there some serious health consequences if a person were to use these drugs?

7  Almost 50% of kids believe that prescription drugs are much safer to use than illegal drugs because they are prescribed by a doctor.  How do you feel about this statement based on what you learned today?

8 “Drunk and drugged driving is one of the most serious public health problems we face today because it is experienced in every community across the nation. While it threatens our stability in human and economic terms, the personal effects of impaired driving are the most devastating.” John Moulden President, National Commission Against Drunk Driving

9  State the Problem: Think about the situation and decide what the decision is to be made.  Consider all of the possible choices: What are all the possible choices in this situation? Think of all the ways you could go about solving the problem and write them down.  Think of all the possible consequences for each choice: List all the positive and negative outcomes for each option/choice.

10  Weigh the consequences and choose the best option/choice: Think about all the positive and negative consequences of each choice and decide what the best choice is for you.  Evaluate your decision: Ask yourself the following questions: How did my decision turn out? Would I do the same thing if I were in a similar situation in the future?
