2016 6th Grade Tobacco Unit:

Tobacco Wheel of Yuck! Game Directions:

Students will toss the ball around the classroom (speedball).  If a student gets out of the game (drops ball, bad throw, hits something they shouldn't hit, etc., this signifies that they have fallen to peer pressure.  At this point everyone puts their heads down and we spin the wheel.  The student then has to look up the tobacco consequence online and share what they found.  The game continues while they search.
