Unit #5 Activity #3<br />

Teaching Learning Strategy #1<br />

Instructions:<br />

1. Have students brainstorm what they believe to be the leading causes of death in<br />

adolescents in Canada.<br />

2. Provide recent statistics for students to analyze, interpret and discuss. See Teacher<br />

Resource (Overhead) Current Statistics: Leading Causes of Youth Deaths in Canada.<br />

3. Lead a class discussion about the common student perception that suicide ranks<br />

number one, while, in fact, motor vehicle accidents are the number one cause of<br />

death. Discuss the possibility that some multi-vehicle accidents may be suicides<br />

(single vehicle accidents in good weather, good road conditions, no evidence of<br />

alcohol or drug use, etc.).<br />
