Did you know that According to the 2003 Monitoring the Future survey,
4.5% of 12th graders, 3.0% of 10th graders, and 2.1% of 8th graders
had used Ecstasy in the past year.

| Do
your students think that “ecstasy” provides a
safe high? They may hear about this drug through media coverage
of “rave” night club events where it is popular
but hazardous. The chemical name of “ecstasy”
is 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (abbreviated MDMA), and
we set forth to dispel the notion that MDMA is a safe party
drug. Our active role-play uses M&M chocolate candies
to enhance understanding that MDMA interferes with communication
in the nervous system.
