Getting Wise to Drugs
A Resource for Teaching Children about Drugs, Dangerous Substances and Other Risky Situations
Published:  19 June, 2008

by David Emmett and Graeme Nice
Jessica Kingsley Publishers paperback £35

This is a resource for use with children aged between eight and twelve years. It comprises exercises centred on illegal drug use, medicine use and safety, solvents, alcohol, tobacco, crime and other ant-social and risky activities.

Fully photocopiable, it features a comprehensive introduction to the programme, followed by 20 exercises grouped into blocks of five, one for each year within the age range of the book.

Each exercise is intended to last 30-45 minutes and can be used in a classroom or other group situation. Each block of five exercises covers the following topics: knowledge and information, risk assessment, consequences and handling situations.

This book is an ideal complement to the authors' previous bestselling titles for older children and young people.
