There is a lot of good stuff in these lessons — asking students to identify where around their homes water might collect, and how they might take action to reduce mosquito breeding. And we love that there are both English and Spanish versions. Exit Slips, Formative, and Summative Evaluations are built into the lessons. The best part of these lessons are the case diagnoses; direct application of what students have learned.
We do wish for a bit less instruction via PowerPoint, but individual teachers can customize that.
