| Abstract | According to the Carnegie Council on Adolescent Development, young adolescents are felt to be far more at risk for self-destructive behaviors than ever before, and middle grades schools are failing to meet students' needs. As part of a plan for restructuring middle grades education, Illinois has created a middle school endorsement added to elementary or secondary teacher certification and has created a model for integrating health, education, and social services into middle level education. One of the university courses designed to meet requirements for the middle school endorsement involves inservice and preservice teachers in learning about basic issues in eight developmentally appropriate areas and embedding those issues within each subject of the regular curriculum. The eight areas include self-esteem, peer relationships, gangs and violence, loss (including death and dying), nutrition, sexual activity, alcohol/drugs/tobacco, and communicable diseases. For each topic, a representative from a community or social service agency presents critical information, and teams of class members devise interdisciplinary units. Appendices to this paper list groups involved in the restructuring process, health and social indicators for early adolescents, health data about students in grades 5 through 8, and a table of contents from a guide to the middle school endorsement course described. Contains five references. (JDD) |
