Science, Tobacco & You educates students on the issues of tobacco with the hope of reducing tobacco use. Resources are available for teachers and students. Engaging activities help students explore the harmful effects of tobacco on the body, strategies for handling peer pressure, and how advertising promotes tobacco usage. Teachers will find a wealth of information in the Teacher/Student Guidebook, which can be downloaded, and lesson plans from the Best Practices competition. Included is an area for sharing lesson plans with other teachers, a bulletin board for discussions, frequently asked questions, and tobacco-related news stories.
