Note on this class plan:
This kind of plan may be longer than you have time to prepare for every class.
However, complete plans like this are especially helpful if someone else will be
preparing the class the next time. For your own use, you can write just enough
to remind you of what to cover. You also can make class plans shorter by using
abbreviations (D for discussion, RP for role play, etc.).
Do try to list the main points the health workers will need to learn in order
to carry out their work in the community. Be sure all the important points are
emphasized during the class, and briefly reviewed by the students at the end.
Students can help you think of test questions, too.
