Teaching stroke symptoms to children is fun and easy!

Posted on January 14, 2010 by Sherry H.

Carr Elementary in Fulton, Kentucky recently  filled their auditorium with a big screen, sound and 84 4th graders.   First the  teacher explained what a stroke was  and what symptoms someone is likely to have if they are having a stroke.  They where then showed the 3 minute animated ACT FAST video seen on our website.   The 4th graders were  divided into four groups and 4 children were asked to come down in front; and get each group to to cheer one of the symptoms.  They remembered all 4 symptoms!    Way to go Carr Elementary!
