I taught health education for six years at the middle school level.
I taught in a title one school in a entirely awful area.
Many of my students qualified for free supper in addition to for some that would be the only meal they ate that day. The illegal use of recreational marijuana was extremely proper in the part where I taught, because it had not been legalized in the state yet. It was also entirely proper for students to bring marijuana to school in addition to to try to sell it, when I taught about the harmful effects of recreational marjuana in my health classes, numerous students disagreed with the information I was teaching. I had to take a unusual approach to education about marijuana. I decided to allow students to do a project where they did research on their own. I broke students into groups in addition to I gave them each a topic to research in addition to then they had to teach the class about that topic. The topics were: cannabis regulations, medical marijuana dispensaries, medical cannabis benefits, medical marijuana benefits, cannabis expertise, cannabis DNA testing, in addition to medical cannabis cards. The presentations were interesting in addition to students learned that there is a big difference between recreational mairjuana use in addition to medical marijuana use. Medical marijuana education is substantial because it shows students that there are dangers in using recreational marijuana especially if it is bought illegally, in addition to that medical marijuana use is not for everyone. When students learn all of the facts about a topic, it can help them with their decision making process in the future.
