Lesson Plan
Medicine Safety Detectives
Students will identify safe and unsafe medicine situations, practice key safety rules using sorting cards, and reinforce learning through a hands-on detective board game.
Building early medicine safety habits helps K–2 students recognize risks, follow rules, and feel empowered to keep themselves and others safe around medications.
