LESSON

1. Review
Essential Questions.
2. View
PowerPoint Slides 12-15
•
Discuss slides
with students emphasizing each eating disorder and the warning signs
•
It is
important to discuss with students the severity of the topic at hand. Students
should be reminded that they should not “diagnose” their friends or other
students. Instead, they should share their concern with a teacher or the
counselor.
•
Students
should understand that eating disorders are a serious topic with today’s teens
and young adults. Eating disorders are not easy to treat, as you have to treat
the issue that caused the disorder (poor self esteem, abuse, emotional issues,
etc.). Students should also be reminded that while eating disorders might be
controlled in an individual, the damage caused to the body during the disorder
may be irreversible (heart damage, oral damage, digestive damage, etc).
