Description

For the past 10 years, I’ve used this game on Day 2 of my Health Science classes, and it has consistently become one of my students’ favorite activities of the year! It’s the perfect icebreaker to get students laughing, talking, and thinking while introducing them to the importance of evidence-based medicine and separating medical myths from scientific facts.

I’ve also used this activity during HOSA meetings, where it always sparks great discussion and friendly competition!

Download Includes:

PowerPoint or Google Slides interactive game
15 medical myths and facts to challenge your students
Teacher instructions
Student response handout
Optional printable FACT and FICTION signs
Teacher answer key with current, scientifically accurate explanations and sources

I ALSO HAVE A VERSION 2 IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO USE THIS TYPE OF ACTIVITY FOR STUDENTS WHO HAVE ALREADY COMPLETED VERSION 1. CHECK IT OUT HERE!
