Up in Smoke
© 1999 Shows4AllAges
About 40 minutes of footage found in ten QuickTime movies are designed to discourage kids from smoking. The movies are taken from live performances of actors Paul Richmond and Jody Scalise who tour the country putting on tobacco use prevention shows for schools. The skits are humorous and make great classroom discussion starters. Although the CD offers no interactivity, the actors incorporate music, mime and rap to get their points across, making for a very entertaining and thought-provoking experience. If your school doesn't have the budget for the live performance, this is a useful, affordable alternative.
