Link to Kid Quest
Kids' Quest on Disability and Health
Join KQ in the quest to learn more about disabilities and health. 
The Kids' Quest is designed for students in 4th, 5th, and 6th grades.  Parents and teachers can modify the materials to meet the students' learning styles and levels.  Quests can be used in lessons about health, social studies, and tolerance in society. 

Link to Excite for High School Students
"Babies and Birth Defects:  A Mystery in Texas"
EXCITE
(EXcellence in Curriculum Integration though Teaching Epidemiology) is a teaching tool developed by CDC for middle and high school teachers and students.  Its purpose is to introduce students to epidemiology, the scientific method of problem solving that helps "disease detectives" find the cause of health problems in a community. 

 

Link to BAM!BAM! is brought to you by The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). BAM! was created to answer kids' questions on health issues and recommend ways to make their bodies and minds healthier, stronger, and safer. Check out "Meeting the Challenge" to learn about some unlikely athletes.
