If you have the time, could you please answer a few questions for my research? I understand you are busy and if you cannot respond I completely understand. Please email your responses to:

your responses will remain confidential. Thank you!
1. Does your school have an organized peer support program in place for students with disabilities or assign specific students to work with exceptional students? If so, could you briefly describe them?
2. What is the ratio of general students to exceptional students in your classes?
3. In what ways do you promote peer interaction in your classroom? To what extent do your general students interact with your exceptional student(s)?
4. Have you observed improved performance by the exceptional student in this situation?
5. Have you observed increased interaction of the student with his/her peers as a result of peer interaction or peer support?
6. What challenges and successes have you had with incorporating peer support activities for exceptional students?
Hi, For science class we are dealing with body systems (circulatory, respiratory, digestive) and I need some ideas for a project dealing with either diseases/disorders concerning these systems or researchers/doctors. Links, suggestions, etc. would be helpful. Thanks!
The program, Healthy Steps for Healthy Lives, is for grades K-3 and offers 31 lessons that align with state health education standards and also integrate math, science, English language arts and social studies skills, allowing students to absorb the information in a variety of contexts while also maintaining a focus on core curriculum.
For instance, in the “Healthy Food Counts” lesson, students are asked to count the number of items shown in each of the food groups (grains, vegetables, milk, fruit, meat and beans) and read and report on a chart about the daily recommended portions of each item in terms of cups and ounces.
The materials incorporate feedback from educators who tested the activities in focus groups and pilot programs in three U.S. schools. Teachers at Grasonville Elementary and Samuel P. Massie Academy in Maryland “especially liked being able to expose students to the five healthy food groups, and the many ways that they can get active. The design was very user friendly for me and easily adaptable to the needs of my classroom. The fact that the lessons drew on first-hand experiences and incorporated movement really engaged the kids. Students are now checking their heart rates on the playground and using words like ‘sedentary and vigorous.’”
There are hard-copy kits available to educators on a first- come, first-serve basis (contains a full-size food groups poster, activity sheets, food cards) and, all of the information is available for download at [link removed]
Participation in this study is completely voluntary, and participants can withdraw at any time. Data collected from this study will be used to enhance our understanding of how teachers think about their role in the healthy development of adolescents. Data will be kept confidential, and at no time will participants be asked to identify the school or school district that employs them.
Participation involves a one-hour interview, which will take place at the convenience of the participant, and can be conducted over the phone. There is the potential that participants may be asked for a second follow-up interview, but participants can decline participation at any time.
If you are a teacher who teaches sex education at all – including teachers who only spend a minimal amount of time teaching about sex, abstinence, healthy relationships or sexuality – and you are interested in participating in this study or have any questions, please feel free to contact me at [email removed].

This study does have University of Missouri Institutional Review Board approval.

Hello. I am taking an online course with the ODE to get certified to teach Health in Ohio schools. I need to find a health teacher to interview. Would you be interested if I sent you the questions. I would greatly appreciate it.
