Asthma & Wildfires: Human Story + Scientific Story (an integrated adaptation)
Overview
This module is adapted from the original Department of Health module, which you can find here.
We were inspired by the original and heartened at the opportunity to integrate across content areas.
Our iteration includes direct connections with secondary ELA and showcases content integration across science and social studies with a strong social justice component. Furthermore, our adaptation highlights Washington state policy that addresses wildfire awareness, prevention, and preventive measures.
Please note the work of the Department of Health Epidemiologists in using data science to understand medical trends and the opportunity to plan health interventions. This is a strong career connection for our students.
