Hantavirus Outbreak! Susan Fadler

Developed in 1993 during a Hantavirus outbreak in the Four Corners area of the Southwest, this curriculum was originally written to help educate. Children who live in rural areas and help to gather food need to understand the dangers of this life threatening disease and how to remain safe. Curriculum deals specifically with precautionary issues as well as Pulmonary Hantavirus Syndrome. Along with safety, Hantavirus Outbreak! also enables teachers to teach thematically across all curriculum. Good for early primary school to High School level with teacher innovation. Ideas and different formats are provided. Creative animal based curriculum which includes Navajo culture with Aboriginal language added to enhance development and creativity in all children. The activities help parents and educators provide opportunities for children to practice language skills, math, reading comprehension, science, and health. 1st place winner of the prestigious ASBA "Golden Bell Award," for new and innovative K-8 curriculum.
