In this model, the content portion of the class is reviewed by students before the in-person portion of the lesson. Reviewing the lesson content before the lesson allows for the live portion of the class to be focused on activities and discussion about the material. In the CATCH MVP series, there are Pre-Recorded Lesson Videos for each lesson that students should review prior to joining the live virtual class. For each class students must: View the Pre-Recorded Lesson before meeting with the educator. Join and participate in the live lesson session during a predetermined class time. Background InformationLesson 1 – The immune system is the body’s defense against infections. The immune system attacks germs and helps keep us healthy. The immune system is a complex network of cells and organs essential for human health. White blood cells, also called leukocytes (pronounced: loo-kuh-sytes), play an important role in the immune system. White blood cells fight invaders that enter our body. It protects the body from infectious microorganisms like viruses, bacteria, and fungi. If these microorganisms enter the body, the immune system combats them. Simple ways we can activate our immune system is: eating a healthy diet, exercising, getting enough sleep, and washing hands. Lesson OverviewTime Estimate: This lesson should take approximately 40 minutes.In this activity youth will learn what makes people sick, how the immune system fights germs, and how being a CATCH MVP can keep our immune system strong. First youth will review what CATCH MVP stands for. Then the students will learn about the immune system. They will listen to a song about handwashing (video links provided). Their first activity will be to practice handwashing. They will then learn how to keep their immune system healthy.
