Context
 Explain how this lesson relates to the unit of study or your broad goals for teaching about the topic.
Students need to be aware of the signs, symptoms, and appropriate interactions for a choking victim.
 Describe the students’ prior knowledge or the focus of the previous lesson.
Students have completed units on safety, including infection control practices, patient, personal safety, recognizing
an emergency and how to activate the chain of survival.
 Describe generally any critical student characteristics or attributes that will affect student learning (other than what you
described in the Teaching and Learning Context). None applicable
Objectives
1. Students will identify, and correctly apply in patient scenario, a conscious choking victim (adult, child, or
infant)and appropriate actions and will be able to pass a written exam to 90% accuracy.
2. Students will identify, and correctly apply in patient scenario, an unconscious choking victim (adult, child, or
infant)and appropriate actions and will be able to pass a written exam to 90% accuracy.
Connections
Connect your goals and objectives to appropriate Kentucky Core Content, Kentucky Occupational Skill Standards
and/or Program of Studies. Use no more than two or three connections, and if not obvious, explain how each
objective is related to the Program of Studies and/or Core Content.
Core Content
PL-HS-1.1.7 Students will describe symptoms, causes, patterns of transmission, prevention and
treatments of communicable diseases (hepatitis, tuberculosis, STD/HIV/AIDS) and noncommunicable diseases (cancer, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, arthritis,
osteoporosis). DOK 2
PL-HS-1.3.2 Students will explain how proper first-aid procedures (e.g., CPR/rescue breathing)
for responding to emergency situations (falls, drowning, choking, bleeding, shock,
poisons, burns, temperature-related emergencies, allergic reactions, broken bones,
overdose, heart attacks, seizures) can help reduce the severity of injuries and save
lives. DOK 2

Introduction
Bellringer - List 4 or 5 common causes of choking.
Discuss student responses.
Presentation
I. Review anatomical drawing of respiratory system
II Recognize s/s of choking
o mild obstruction
o strong cough
o remain with victim
o activate EMS is obstruction becomes complete
o complete (severe)
o no air exchange
o weak, ineffective cough
o cannot speak, breath, or cough
o universal sign of choking
III. Conscious choking (adult / child)
o Show AHA DVD / airway obstruction
o Allow student practice as indicated by DVD
o Circulate among students checking for correct procedure
o Remediate as needed
IV. Unconscious choking (adult / child)
o Show AHA DVD / airway obstruction
o Allow student practice as indicated by DVD
o Circulate among students checking for correct procedure
o Remediate as needed
V. Conscious choking (infant)
o Show AHA DVD / airway obstruction
o Allow student practice as indicated by DVD
o Circulate among students checking for correct procedure
o Remediate as needed
VI. Unconscious choking (infant)
o Show AHA DVD / airway obstruction
o Allow student practice as indicated by DVD
o Circulate among students checking for correct procedure
o Remediate as needed
Review
Student practice using AHA scenarios.
Impact
(Analysis of Student Achievement from this lesson)
How many students met performance criteria for objectives? How many did not meet the performance criteria for
objectives?
Refinement
(How will you change the lesson to increase student achievement?)
1. What did your impact analysis tell you about how your students learn?
2. What did your impact analysis tell you about the success of the strategies you used?
3. How useful were the assessments in terms of student learning?
4. What resources and/or personnel might assist you in improving student achievement?
5. How will you differentiate instruction so that all students achieve?
6. How will you differentiate instruction for students who easily achieved the performance criteria and need to
move forward?
