We want students to be able to do:
We want the students to be able to use
reasoning to solve real world problems in regard to drugs and their
effects on them, the world, and others. We also want the students
to label the parts of the body that these drugs effect. |

Task:
The students are going to be doing a detective
task by looking for clues as to the types of
drugs, what effects the drugs cause, and what happens if drugs are
abused. |
