How to care for health every day

Students explore simple habits that lower disease risk and prepare preventative health posters.

Steps

1. A gentle, factual conversation: what cancer is, that many people recover, and why health checkups matter.
2. Groups draw a topic: sun protection, physical exercise, healthy nutrition, smoke-free lifestyle, regular checkups.
3. Each group prepares a poster featuring three simple, actionable tips.
4. Presentation of posters and choosing one personal health habit everyone commits to this week.
5. Posters are hung in the hallway.

Tip: Remember that a student in class may have an ill relative; speak with hope and without scare tactics.

Materials needed

• coloured B1 poster board (1 sheet per group)
• coloured markers (1 set per group)
