These dynamic standards-based classroom activities were developed by the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign and the National Education Association's Health Information Network. While the activities are not a drug education curriculum, they do offer a variety of ways to easily integrate drug prevention activities into different subject areas. These activities and reference tools can be used by virtually any teacher of students aged 11-14. Follow the lessons as written or tailor them to best meet the needs of your students and subject area.
