In reference to the subject matter, it was difficult in reading the overview abstract, evaluation introduction, and the curriculum to define a clear subject matter focus and specific objectives. Selection of healthy lifestyle choices, wellness focus and health issues were all listed as the primary subject matter focus. Please look at the cigarette smoking activity. It needs to be clear that the helper or leader is lighting the cigarette and helping in the safe disposal of the experiment. Critical reviews of all activities may be needed.
Activities appear to be fun, interactive and engaging.
The evaluation does not reflect this. The pages are appealing but crowded. One evaluator noted that this curriculum will be most successful for those who like writing and reading activities. Life skills are clearly identified, but not always defined or evaluated. The observation is that they were assigned after the activities were written.
