Teaming Up For Tobacco Free Kids Lesson Plan

This Teachers’ Resource Kit is one component of the Teaming Up for Tobacco-Free Kids
Campaign and draws upon the experiences and resources of those active in preventing tobacco use among children. It was developed with the assistance of teachers, health professionals, and project partners to facilitate the tobacco prevention education efforts of teachers in Alberta, Canada.

Teaming Up for Tobacco-Free Kids targets students in Grades 4 to 6. Emphasizing prevention, the goal of the program is to increase awareness about the dangers related to tobacco use before they form regular tobacco use patterns. The program delivers positive role modeling among peers, provides appealing t-shirts, and builds youth capacity for healthy living.
