Game teaching guide

What children will practise

Understand community health: what it means, the roles of village health volunteers and subdistrict health-promoting hospitals, how waste management and clean water affect health, and how young people can take part.

What's in the worksheet

6 multiple-choice questions, 3 options each - Community health is the overall health of people in a community - Village health volunteers educate and follow up on health (distractor: treat illness instead of doctors) - Good waste management removes breeding grounds for germs and vectors - Clean water reduces digestive illness - Young people campaign and share correct information; the subdistrict health hospital gives basic care and prevention

How to use it in class

Use in the community health unit; about 6 minutes. - Before playing, ask who has a relative who is a village health volunteer or has visited the local health hospital - Extend question 5 into a small project, such as a village campaign to turn over water containers - Solo or team play both work; for questions 2 and 6, make clear who does what - Play it linked to the class to record results in the mark book.

Common sticking points

- Question 2: children who have seen volunteers take blood pressure or hand out basic medicines may pick 'treat illness instead of doctors'; explain volunteers do not treat disease - Question 3: 'only makes the community look clean' is half true and catches children who miss the link to disease - Question 6: 'major surgery and serious illness' tempts children who think anything called a hospital treats everything - Question 5: 'share every health news item you see' sounds like taking part
