Are you a preK - second grade teacher looking for an exciting way to introduce Red Ribbon Week? If so, Sarah's Sick Day is the ideal beginning. Share Sarah's story with your students as you help them see the dangerous of taking medicine without a parent's guidance.
Sarah really wants to go to school today, but she's feeling very sick. It's share day, her favorite day of the week. If she stays home, she'll miss sharing her new birthday doll, she'll miss snack time with her friend, Grace, and she'll miss story time. Her mom says she's going to call the doctor, but Sarah knows just what medicine she should take to feel better-or does she?
