This week the AASM launched Sleep Education, a new website for K-12 teachers at www.sleepeducation.com. The website contains free lesson plans, activities, assessment tools and presentations that teachers can download to bring sleep into the classroom. Lessons are categorized by grade level and available in a printer-friendly format, and each lesson plan is complete with learning objectives, procedures, assessments and differentiation techniques. These resources will help generate interest in the study of sleep medicine and raise awareness of sleep disorders among students.
