Drug and Alcohol Attention Grabbers™ - Peer Pressure

Over the next few weeks, NIMCO will be sharing some "Attention Grabber™" ideas that you can use in class to help teach about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. The “Attention Grabbers” are designed to assist with teaching and speaking about the adverse effects alcohol and drugs cause to all who are exposed to these addictive drugs. We live in a visual society, making visual aids a needed resource to assist with speaking or teaching thus enabling you to reach your entire audience. The suggestions are designed to assist your alcohol and drug education programs. You may expound upon each scenario as your presentation or speaking time allows. Each “Attention Grabber™” is very cost effective to present with the suggested visual aids to reiterate the information given during your presentation. These "Attention Grabber™" ideas are also great for Red Ribbon Week!


Supplies:
• A large doll that can stand-alone or that may be supported by a prop
• A roll of any type colored plastic wrap

Directions:
Start by telling the audience that you realize everyone in the room including yourself is effected daily by peer pressure. Many times, people don’t realize the problems youth face daily concerning drugs and alcohol. Explain that every person has the personal power to say NO to drugs or alcohol. Let the group know that you realize how peer pressure can sometimes cause them to make poor choices. Negative peer pressure may cause you to loose sight of your goals and positive judgment and encourage you to make poor choices. Each one of us needs to realize that we have control over our lives until we give it away. Take charge of your destiny and don’t ever let anyone take away your control or force you to do something negative with your lifestyle.

I have a new discovery that will help you if you decide that you cannot resist negative peer pressure. Ask a volunteer to assist you in front of the group. Ask the volunteer to hold the doll and start wrapping the doll from head to toe. Make sure that you completely cover the doll with the plastic wrap. When you have finished the task hold up the plastic covered doll and tell the audience that if you wrap yourself completely no one can get to you and pressure you into a negative choice. Thank the volunteer and have he/she return to their seat. Ask the audience what they think about your new idea. The responses should be negative. Examples may be 1. You could not breathe 2. It’s not practical to do such a thing 3. You could not eat or drink etc. Agree with their comments and encourage positive suggestions and ways to avoid negative peer pressure.

Explain to the group that wrapping yourself in plastic wrap is not practical. In addition, you realize that there is no way to avoid the peer pressure you are exposed to everyday concerning drugs and alcohol. Explain that you have to make the choice and then stand firm. Many times that means leaving your group of friends and becoming involved with a positive peer group. Use this opportunity to explain the difference between positive and negative peer pressure.

End by telling the group that you realize the plastic wrap is impractical and there is no way you can live in a “glass bubble”. Even though there are times when it would be wonderful, it is not a practical decision. The whole object of the demonstration is to make students realize there is no way to avoid peer pressure, but they can make positive choices and control their lives.

Drug and Alcohol Attention Grabbers™ - A Little or a Lot

Over the next few weeks, NIMCO will be sharing some "Attention Grabber™" ideas that you can use in class to help teach about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. The “Attention Grabbers” are designed to assist with teaching and speaking about the adverse effects alcohol and drugs cause to all who are exposed to these addictive drugs. We live in a visual society, making visual aids a needed resource to assist with speaking or teaching thus enabling you to reach your entire audience. The suggestions are designed to assist your alcohol and drug education programs. You may expound upon each scenario as your presentation or speaking time allows. Each “Attention Grabber™” is very cost effective to present with the suggested visual aids to reiterate the information given during your presentation. These "Attention Grabber™" ideas are also great for Red Ribbon Week!


Supplies:
Adhesive backed name tags

Directions:
Pass out the name tags to each student and have them put their name on the tag and stick it to their
shirt, blouse, or sweater. Explain that if they use drugs or alcohol products some may become addicted. Others may experiment with drugs or alcohol or have friends that use drugs or alcohol. Explain that if it is just one time or a lifetime you will be effected in some way.  

Youth are the target of the alcoholic beverage company’s massive media campaigns. They want your money and do not care about the Consequences their products will cause in peoples lives.

Tell the group that each name tag is their first introduction to drugs or alcohol. Ask them to pull the tag off and look at the back (sticky side) of the name tag. Explain that some may have a lot of fuzz or lint if they were wearing a sweater or fleece type top, while others have very little particles on the back. Tell the group that when they experiment with drugs or alcohol there are no guarantees on how each individual will be affected. Ask the group if they are really prepared to take that risk.

These "Attention Grabber™" ideas are also great for Red Ribbon Week!

Supplies:
• One long-stem live rose (any color) with thorns

Directions:
Hold up the rose and talk about how it is beautiful, but also very fragile. The bloom is beautiful to look at and smells so nice. Pass the rose to the students and ask each one to pull a petal from the rose. When the rose is nothing but the stem, ask the student to bring it back to you. Hold up the stem and point out that all that is left is the stem and thorns. Tell the students it is hard to imagine that this ugly stem with thorns once had a beautiful rose on it.  

Explain that when you use drugs or alcohol they do the same thing to your body. They strip you of all your vital healthy parts and leave you with a disease-wrecked body. We can’t put the petals back on the rose and you can’t undo damage done to your body by drugs or alcohol.

Drug and Alcohol Attention Grabbers™ - Affairs Of The Heart

Drug and Alcohol Attention Grabbers™ - Affairs Of The Heart


Over the next few weeks, NIMCO will be sharing some "Attention Grabber™" ideas that you can use in class to help teach about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. The “Attention Grabbers” are designed to assist with teaching and speaking about the adverse effects alcohol and drugs cause to all who are exposed to these addictive drugs. We live in a visual society, making visual aids a needed resource to assist with speaking or teaching thus enabling you to reach your entire audience. The suggestions are designed to assist your alcohol and drug education programs. You may expound upon each scenario as your presentation or speaking time allows. Each “Attention Grabber™” is very cost effective to present with the suggested visual aids to reiterate the information given during your presentation. These "Attention Grabber™" ideas are also great for Red Ribbon Week!

Supplies:
• Three Construction Paper Shaped Hearts (red)
• Glue

Directions:
Glue two construction paper hearts together prior to the lecture. Cut one single heart to use at the beginning of the presentation. Hold up the single heart and explain that the heart is vital to maintain life and it must function properly in order that we may have a healthy and safe life. Your heart beats an average of 72 beats a minute, and pumps 1.3 gallons (5 liters) of blood per minute which is 1,900 gallons (7,200 liters) per day. Explain to the group that your heart is very a synchronized organ and when you drink alcohol, consume, or inject drugs you immediately affect your heart. 

Alcohol is a depressant. This means it slows your central nervous system down. When you consume alcohol in mass quantities, you may even cease to breath. Thus causing your heart rate to decrease to the point of death. The reason many people say that alcohol relaxes them is because it literally slows down your heart rate. Most illegal drugs speed up your heart rate. 

Hold up the two hearts glued together and demonstrate that one heart is slowed down by alcohol (which is a drug) and illegal drugs increase the heart rate on the other. Demonstrate that when your heart or body is pulled in two different directions at the same time this can happen. Tear the two hearts apart. Hold up the damaged hearts and say that we can glue these back together, but ask the group this question. Will the heart ever look the same? Of course the answer is NO. Use this demonstration to make the audience aware that experimenting with drugs, alcohol or both will cause damage that can never be repaired. Refer back to the earlier statement about the function of the heart on a daily basis. Use this opportunity to reiterate the fact that drugs and alcohol are dangerous and many times fatal.

Added Activity:
You may have students research the effects of drugs and alcohol on the heart as an additional educational activity.

It's Up To Me To Be Healthy - Ideas for Red Ribbon Week Activities

NIMCO, Inc. Encourages Red Ribbon Week Activities


Over the next few weeks leading up to Red Ribbon Week 2013, NIMCO will be sharing some activity ideas on our blog that teachers and community leaders can use to help students get excited about Red Ribbon Week. Many of these ideas can be incorporated in your school leading up to Red Ribbon Week.

Our 17th entry is entitled: It's Up To Me To Be Healthy

Red Ribbon Week is a positive and affirming opportunity for everyone to celebrate a “Drug Free” and a “Healthy Lifestyle.”  
Red Ribbon Week, Red Apple, Red Ribbon Week activities
Red apples are a great way to encourage being
healthy for Red Ribbon Week!

• In class, students are asked to sign their name, write a “Be Healthy” message, and then ‘link’ their papers together (like a chain) to hang up around the school.

• Students can invite their parents or guardians to school for lunch. After lunch, everyone is encouraged to pledge to be healthy by signing his or her name on a paper banner citing the theme.

• Students receive a red apple during lunchtime to enjoy.

• Students write a healthy choice on a beach ball. After completing, the teacher dunks it into a basket as a symbolic gesture.

TODAY’S MESSAGE
“A Healthy Me is Drug Free!”


Head over to our website for more Red Ribbon Week information. We also have a page dedicated to the National 2013 Red Ribbon Week Theme "A Healthy Me is Drug Free!" where you can purchase many different promotional items that you can use and pass out to students during Red Ribbon Week Oct. 23-31st.

Back To Back - Ideas for Red Ribbon Week Activities

NIMCO, Inc. Encourages Red Ribbon Week Activities


Over the next few weeks leading up to Red Ribbon Week 2013, NIMCO will be sharing some activity ideas on our blog that teachers and community leaders can use to help students get excited about Red Ribbon Week. Many of these ideas can be incorporated in your school leading up to Red Ribbon Week

Red Ribbon Week, Drug Education, Advertising and Youth
Advertising plays a huge role in whether or not our youth will use drugs
Our fourth entry is entitled: Back To Back

Celebrate this day by letting students stand up together against drugs. Adults and students can learn from each other on what to do in difficult situations. Below are different types of activities that students can do together.

Set up role playing situations. Have students make a list of common situations among adolescents. Ask them to share ways that teens may deal with each of those stressors. Then group the stressors into helpful and hurtful coping strategies. Discuss how drug use can be a harmful coping strategy and how it can be a stressor itself.

Discuss anti drug advertising and the level of effectiveness on the behaviors of young people. Have students develop their own campaigns.

Discuss how various drugs are portrayed on television, movies, radio, magazines, music, newspapers, billboards or other visible advertising. Instruct students to watch television, mix up
the shows, and record the number of references to alcohol, tobacco, or other drugs and how
each reference was portrayed. Have each student share the type of television show he/she was
watching, the portrayal of substances and how he/she thinks this might impact youth.

TODAY’S MESSAGE

“With education and knowledge we can stand together against drugs.”

Head over to our website for more Red Ribbon Week information.

NIMCO, Inc. Encourages Red Ribbon Week Activities


Over the next few weeks leading up to Red Ribbon Week 2013, NIMCO will be sharing some activity ideas on our blog that teachers and community leaders can use to help students get excited about Red Ribbon Week. Many of these ideas can be incorporated in your school leading up to Red Ribbon Week. 

Our second entry is entitled: What's Your Anti-Drug? 

Students get to focus on what is more important to them than doing drugs. Essays not only
Red Ribbon Week, Red Ribbon Week 2013, Drug Free, Drug Free Lifestyle
Encourage kids to focus on sports instead of doing drugs!
help students with their writing skills but it comes easy when they can write about something
they love. Below are a few ideas on what your students can write about.

• Start out discussing sports and other activities your students enjoy and the specific body
systems needed to participate in these activities. Then talk about the physical effects of
specific drugs and how they would impact a person’s skill level for those activities.

• Student’s write an essay about things they love to do instead of
drugs. Example: basketball, baseball, drawing, music, dancing,
spending time with family and friends.

• Have students brainstorm and create a list of why young people or
adults would start using alcohol, tobacco or other drugs. Then have
them develop a list of consequences of drug use. Finally, have them
develop a list of ways to be drug-free.

• Why My Parent(s) or Guardians are My Anti-Drugs

TODAY’S MESSAGE

“Loving and living life is my anti-drug!”

Performance-Enhancing Drug Education Within Little League Baseball?

Little League Is Doing Their Part to Educate About Drugs

NIMCO, Inc. is happy to hear that Little League Baseball is going to introduce an educational program that will bring awareness to coaches, parents, volunteers, and (most importantly) the young players about the dangers of performance-enhancing drugs. Drug education is a must in this country and with recent reports of suspensions of star athletes from professional baseball, the time is critical to educate our youth that winning and being famous doesn't mean you have to use drugs.

With Red Ribbon Week coming up October 23-31st, how do you feel about Little League starting this education program and how do think it will help long-term? Nimco would love to hear your views on this controversial subject.

Drug Prevention Facts To Share With Students for Red Ribbon Week

Drug Prevention Facts To Share With Students for Red Ribbon Week
Red Ribbon Week | A Healthy Me Is Drug Free | Red Ribbon Week 2013 | Drug Prevention
A Healthy Me Is Drug Free Banner

Seeing the Connections—The Future of Our Youth Is in Your Hands
Alcohol and drug use by children and youth are associated with poor academic performance, impaired development, mental health issues, and many factors that affect the health and behavior of youth. This fact sheet provides valuable data from the Nation’s most reliable data sources (including the National Survey on Drug Use and Health and Monitoring the Future) that can help you assist local media in their coverage of substance abuse issues where you live.

Drug Use Among Youth
• Among youths aged 12-17, 10.6 percent were current illicit drug users: 7.6 percent used marijuana, 3.6 percent used prescription-type drugs, 1.2 percent used inhalants, 0.8 percent used hallucinogens, and 0.5 percent used cocaine.1
• Higher rates of dependence or abuse were seen among persons initiating use at a younger age. For example, among adults aged 18 or older who first tried marijuana at age 14 or younger, 13.4 percent were classified with illicit drug dependence or abuse compared with only 2.7 percent of adults who had first used marijuana at age 18 or older.1
• With respect to using any illicit drug other than marijuana in the past 30 days, the rank order was as follows: 12th graders (10 percent), college students and 19-to 28-year-olds (both 8 percent), 10th graders (7 percent), and 8th graders (5 percent). Usage rates among 10th and 12th graders tended to be higher than among young adults.2
• In 2004, 10 percent of 12th graders reported annual use of amphetamines,
9.3 percent said they had used Vicodin, and 5 percent said they had used OxyContin in that time period. Amphetamines became the second-ranking illicit drug among high school seniors after marijuana.3

Mental Health
• Early substance abuse increases the likelihood of a person developing psychiatric disorders in his or her late 20s.4
• Persons who used tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, and other illicit substances in earlier years were more likely to have diagnoses of major depressive disorder (MDD, 17 percent), alcohol dependence (23 percent), or substance use disorders (SUDs, 40 percent) in their late 20s.4

Youth Delinquent Behavior
• Youths who had run away from home in the past 12 months were more likely to have used alcohol, marijuana, or an illicit drug other than marijuana in the past year than youths who had not run away.5
• Marijuana was used in the past year by 23 percent of the runaways aged 12 to 17 and 12 percent of those who had not run away from home.5
• The percentages of youths engaging in delinquent behaviors rose with increasing frequency of marijuana use.6
• In 2003, more than 5.8 million youths engaged in serious fighting at school or work and almost 4.3 million took part in a group-against-group fight in the past year.7
• Over half (57 percent) of those who used marijuana 300 or more days in the past year reported that they also sold illegal drugs.6

Perception of Harm
• Youths perceiving great risk from using marijuana once or twice a month were less likely to use substances than youths perceiving moderate, slight, or no risk.7
• Among youths aged 12 to 17, approximately 35 percent perceived great risk from smoking marijuana once a month, and 49.6 percent perceived great risk from using cocaine once a month. Smoking one or more packs of cigarettes per day was cited as a great risk by 67.5 percent of youths.1

Perception of Parental Disapproval
• Youths who perceive that their parents would “strongly disapprove” of their use of illicit substances were much less likely to use those substances than youths who perceived that their parents would “somewhat disapprove, or neither approve or disapprove.”1
• Among youths who perceived that their parents would strongly disapprove of their smoking one or more packs of cigarettes a day (90.6 percent of youths), only 8.8 percent had smoked cigarettes in the past month compared with 42.2 percent of youths who perceived that their parents would not strongly disapprove.1
• Most youths (89.8 percent) reported that their parents would strongly disapprove of their trying marijuana once or twice. Among these youths, only 5.1 percent had used marijuana in the past month. However, among youths who perceived that their parents would only somewhat disapprove or neither approve nor disapprove of their trying marijuana, 30 percent reported past month use of marijuana.1

Participation in Religious Activities
• In 2004, 7.9 million youths (32 percent) aged 12-17 attended religious services 25 times or more in the past year. More than three in four youths(18.9 million) reported that religious beliefs are a very important part of their lives and 68 percent (16.8 million) reported that religious beliefs influenced how they make decisions. Youths aged 12 to 17 with higher levels of religiosity were less likely to have used cigarettes, alcohol, or illicit drugs in the past month than youths with lower levels of religiosity.7
• Youths aged 12 to 17, those who participated in two or more youth activities during the past year were less likely to have used marijuana in the past month than other youths.7

Exposure to Prevention Messages
• Rates of past-year alcohol and illicit drug use were lower for youths who had seen or heard drug or alcohol prevention messages at school in the past year than youths who had not seen or heard drug or alcohol prevention messages at school.1
• Among youths aged 12 to 17 who were enrolled in school during the past 12 months, 78.2 percent reported having seen or heard drug or alcohol prevention messages in school during that period. Of those indicating they had seen or heard these messages, the rate of past-month marijuana use was
7.1 percent compared with 10.6 percent for the remaining youths.1
