In an effort to help elementary school teachers educate their students about germs and disease prevention (and to sell disinfectant) Clorox has developed a website for teachers.
Clorox Classrooms offers ten lesson plans, four "take home" activities, and a couple of interactive whiteboard activities for K-5 classrooms. Each of the ten lesson plans are designed to help students understand what germs are and how to prevent the spread of germs. Most of the lesson plans include an "extension" activities for interactive whiteboards.
Applications for Education
There are K-2 and 3-5 versions of four lesson plans;
The Case of Invisible Invaders,
Follow Those Germs,
The Usual Suspects, and
Science Fair Investigation. For 3-5 only there is
How Clean is the Scene? And for K-2 only there is
Removing the Evidence. The lesson plans are published as PDFs with handouts for students. The lesson plans are designed to get students out of their seats and actively engaged in problem solving.
