Using Media to Spread Good Health Habits

everett washing hands

Hall Davidson reminded me of a really fun, yet disgusting video about the importance of washing your hands and how germs are spread.  If you are logged into Discovery Education Streaming, check out “The Sneeze, How Germs are Spread.”  The video is rather old and not very high tech, but it really gets the message across.

There is a nice free video from BrainPop that explains the spread of the SwineFlu in kid friendly terms.  This would be helpful to watch after you have been disgusted by the first video.

And for a little more indepth look at the flu, here are some resources gathered by Larry Ferlazzo.
