Puffer Unscramble Game

Target group: older

Supplies: See page 11 of Fun Book – pictures showing steps of device use

Activity

Form groups of 3 - 4 students or base group membership on medication device used.
Refer to the scrambled steps on page 11 of Fun Book.
Challenge the groups to see which can most quickly determine the correct order of the steps. Either have the students:

refer to the scrambled steps on page 11 of the Fun Book and number each step, or
enlarge and print the steps. Cut them out for each group to arrange in the correct order on a table or display board.

Each group has to demonstrate the steps. Watch carefully to ensure the steps are in the correct order.
Tell the group how well it did. What was good about the demonstration? Did you spot any mistakes? Give them a hand (applause).

This idea came from the RAP instructors at Credit Valley Hospital, Ontario and drawings came from the Ontario Public Health School Asthma Project.
