“…All reading test measurements were subsequently converted to grade equivalent scores, ranging from a low of 1.1 to a high of 8.0 among fourth graders, from 1.3 to 8. 2 among fifth graders and from 1.3 to 9.9 among sixth graders.++ Because of Canton City school administration policy, it was not possible to analyze the raw CTBS and SAT reading scores.…”

This study was to determine how effective an activity-centered health curriculum was in providing health information to fourth, fifth and sixth-grade students in the Canton City school system. The assessment was facilitated by a posttest-only research design. Ten schools were randomly selected to receive a new health program, as compared to a control group of 10 schools which did not. Results indicated that the experimental students achieved significantly higher posttest cognitive knowledge mean scores than the control students. These findings were sustained for each grade level after adjusting for group differences in reading ability.

“…Ten schools were then randomly selected to receive the Guide, and ten schools were allowed to continue using a health science textbook. 6 The new curriculum was implemented in the 10 experimental schools during the four-month period February through May. Teachers were given only one or two hours of formal orientation, after which they were instructed to use four preselected activities in each of the six health concept areas, for a total of 24 "required" activities.…”

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of an activity‐centered health education curriculum on the attitudes of 4th, 5th and 6th graders in a small, midwest city school system. The program was evaluated in part by a pretest/posttest design in which 10 randomly selected schools received the health curriculum and 10 schools did not. Twenty‐eight (28) health belief model questions were used to measure perceived susceptibility, perceived seriousness, perceived preventability and self reported behavior relating to general health problems. The results indicated that the experimental students, compared to their controls, were much more inclined to change their health beliefs and self‐reported behavior in a positive direction, regardless of grade level.
