1 TOBACCO: GET THE FACTS LESSON 2-6

2 BELL RINGER Student Journal: Page 8, Lesson 4 -Write 3 things you think you know about tobacco or 3 things you learned from surveying your peers. + Take out your completed surveys.

3 PERCEIVED NORMS What percent of high school students did your peers think smoke tobacco? What percent of high school students did your peers think use chew or smokeless tobacco? When teens think more people are using tobacco than actually do, they may be more likely to experiment with or try tobacco.

4 SURVEY RESULTS What are some of the words your peers used to describe teens who use tobacco? What are some of the words your peers used to describe adults who use tobacco? The attitudes young people hold can influence their own choices. Views may change as people become older or as they learn more about or see the effects of nicotine. What were your peers opinions on the last question- whether nicotine in tobacco is as harmful as other drugs?

5 TOBACCO FACT HUNT, WB PAGE 12 Find the posters around the room containing the following information: - Short Term Physical Effects - Long Term Physical Effects - Psychological Effects - Social Effects - Effects of Secondhand Smoke 5-7 minutes to circulate and find the answers to the questions on page 12. + Circle the 3 facts you think would most likely convince a friend NOT to use tobacco. + Circle the 2 most compelling reasons to avoid second hand smoke.

6 NICOTINE -Powerful and addictive drug. -More people die from tobacco use each year than all of the people killed by illegal drugs in the last century. -For every person who dies from tobacco use, 20 more suffer from at least one serious tobacco related illness. -Review Fact Hunt Answers

7 CIGARETTE USE -On the decline, from 1999- 2011, % of high school students who smoke at least 2 cigarette in the past 30 days dropped from 35% to 18%. -THERE IS NO SAFE WAY TO USE TOBACCO!

8 ALCOHOL: GET THE FACTS LESSON 2-7

9 BELL RINGER Student Journal: Pg. 10: Lesson 6 Write 5 things you know about alcohol.

10 In class discussion notes, brainstorm reasons people might use alcohol. AGREE OR DISAGREE: ALCOHOL IS A DANGEROUS DRUG.

11 WHAT IS ALCOHOL A drug that affects people physically, mentally, emotionally and socially. Use can also lead to legal consequences. # off 1-6 List the effects or consequences of using alcohol related to a particular area. Think about both SHORT term and LONG term. Your group will have 2 minutes at each poster. When you move to a new poster, review the work of the previous group. Add anything that has been left off. Put a question mark by something you don’t think belongs.

12 PHYSICAL EFFECTS- SHORT TERM Slows down the central nervous system Slower reflexes and reactions Clumsy and lack of coordination Slurred speech Distorted vision Upset stomach and vomiting Hangovers and headaches Blackouts Alcohol poisoning Loss of consciousness, respiratory failure and death

13 PHYSICAL EFFECTS- LONG TERM Addiction/ alcoholism Liver damage (cirrhosis), liver disease and failure Cardiovascular disease Neurological problems (dementia), loss of brain function Stroke Fetal alcohol syndrome in babies who’s mothers drank while pregnant

14 MENTAL EFFECTS Impaired judgment Confusion Less ability to focus or concentrate Memory lapse Difficulty processing information Destruction of brain cells leads to memory problems and impaired reasoning skills

15 EMOTIONAL EFFECTS Lowered inhibitions Mood swings Increased aggression Heightened emotions- quick to be angry or sad Depression Anxiety

16 SOCIAL EFFECTS Changes in behavior, acting different than normal Feeling more social or withdrawing from others More likely to take risks or try dangerous things More likely to engage in risky sexual behaviors, including unprotected sex and sex with multiple partners. More likely to argue or fight with others. Problems with family and friends due to things done or said while drinking Loss of productivity at school or work due to hangovers. Engaging in embarrassing acts. Car crashes due to impaired driving.

17 LEGAL CONSEQUENCES Illegal for anyone under 21. MIP (minor in possession) Fines and laws against using fake ID to purchase alcohol. Arrest for DUI (driving under influence): suspended license, court ordered treatment Assault charges for fighting Suspension or expulsion from school

18 National Highway Traffic Safety Administration: 1 out of every 3 fatal (deadly) motor vehicle crashes involves a driver who’s been drinking. Driving takes concentration, skill, alertness, focus and the ability to make quick decisions. 1 drink can impair a person’s judgment. Can’t judge distance and speed or look ahead to avoid things. Drivers under the influence, take longer to react to situations and have more difficulty controlling their vehicles. Especially dangerous for teens who have less driving experience. DRINKING AND DRIVING

19 PERCEIVED NORMS What % of high school students do you think drink alcohol? YRBS says: Just under have tried alcohol at least once. Only about currently (in the last 30 days) drink. Why do teens drink? Among teens who currently drink, how much alcohol do you think they drink? 22% of those students who drink had 5 or more drinks in a row within a couple of hours on at least 1 day during the past 30 days.

20 BINGE DRINKING (4 OR MORE) Drinking a dangerous amount of alcohol in a short time. Ingest more alcohol than the body can handle at one time. Size, weight and gender affect how fast this happens. Leads to rapid intoxication, vomiting, passing out, blackouts and developing a tolerance for alcohol. Blackout- when a person can’t remember what happened while drinking.

21 BLOOD ALCOHOL LEVEL Alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream from the stomach and small intestine. Measured as a ratio (in tenths): the more alcohol absorbed, the higher the BAL, the more intoxicated they become..02%, two-tenths of a percent- reaction time is impaired..04% person develops a buzz from drinking..06% the effects of drinking alcohol change. Good feelings become less positive, negative effects become more negative..08% coordination and judgement impaired. Considered legally drunk for a person who is driving..10% high risk of injury and blackouts..25% risk of alcohol overdose..40% fatal. Binge drinking causes high BAL in a short time. The only thing that will remove alcohol from a person’s blood is time. The liver can process about ½ ounce of alcohol per hour. The more a person drinks, the longer it takes them to become sober.

22 WHAT’S IN A DRINK?

23 EXIT/CLOSE Complete Workbook, Pg. 21.

24 MARIJUANA: GET THE FACTS LESSON 2-9

25 BELL RINGER Get out Student Journal Pg. 11 Lesson 7 Journal Entry Statement: Marijuana is/is not as dangerous as other drugs. Circle which version of this statement you agree with and explain why. Today you are separating myth from fact.

26 ASK & DISCUSS Marijuana is a drug that you may hear conflicting opinions about and one that has many myths associated with it. What are some other things you may have heard about marijuana or some questions you may have about it?

27 ACTIVITY - READ TOGETHER Marijuana: Get the Facts page 22 of Workbook As we read silently as a class, look for and underline any facts or evidence from the reading that can disprove the myths listed in the box on page 22.

28 ACTIVITY - GROUPS Marijuana Myth Busters Workbook pg. 24-25 Read the situation in your group Then have each group member work individually to counter the myth he or she was assigned earlier. Share the facts from the reading that help counter the myth Put the response into your own words – What would you tell Jules to say to share the facts in a way the cousin would understand. When done, share with the rest of your group. Review as a class.

29 SUMMARIZE Being armed with factual information is important when someone tries to convince you that marijuana is harmless.

30 PERCEIVED NORMS What percent of high school students do you think use marijuana? YRBS says: Just under of all high school students have tried marijuana at least once. Only about currently use it (1 time in the past 30 days). Why do you think teens choose to experiment with marijuana? How could perceived norms – what people believe about other people’s behaviors – around marijuana use affect a teen’s choice?

31 Teens may starting using marijuana for many of the same reasons as alcohol. - celebrate - change the way they feel - feel less shy in social situations - escape their problems. Feel like a group or someone pressures them. When teens think more people their age use marijuana than actually do, it can add to this pressure. SUMMARIZE

32 BENEFITS OF AVOIDING USE Avoid potential memory problems long-term marijuana use causes. Benefit of clearer mind and better memory. Succeed at school or job. Protecting physical health and avoiding social and legal problems.

33 CLOSE Use the reading from page 22-23 to: Complete Workbook, Pg. 26.
