Dear Colleague:
Thank you for the opportunity to share TV&ME with you and your students.
This guide has been written by educators, for educators, and is intended for use in your
schools and communities. It has been designed to help you address curriculum
expectations in the area of Viewing and Representing, Media Literacy, Language, and
Healthy Life Coping Skills.
As part of an effort to reach children in their homes and communities, as well as their
schools, TV&ME is proud to announce that we are providing complimentary worksheets
for educators, parents and caregivers. For more information, please visit our website
at http://www.cca-kids.ca.
Some features of TV&ME for Educators include:
a series of 'Core' Lessons designed to wrap around the commercials produced by
Concerned Children's Advertisers;
Skills Extensions to promote learning across the curriculum;
all lesson plans come complete with black line masters for your use;
'A Step Further' provides opportunities for you to link the learning experiences with
home and community;
'Peer Teaching' opportunities have been identified to help you promote leadership and a
sense of community in the classroom;
a certificate is provided for your use at the end of the program to recognize the
contributions of our young people as they make healthy choices concerning their future.
A Video is also included as part of the TV&ME program. It is intended to:
provide you with some footage of TV&ME in action in the classroom;
introduce you to the commercials and the possibilities that each provides for learning
with your students;
provide you with a complete set of pro-social messages which have been selected as
learning vehicles in this guide;
