• You will compile your own questions and then exchange it with a friend to answer it.  Make sure you ask the questions clearly that they know exactly what you want to know.  We do not ask questions to try and 'stump' someone, we ask questions to make sure that person gathers more information and listens and watches the video carefully.
• Draw a 'mind map' or make a summary on these two videos and the extra reading piece that you have it for future references.
• You can also do more reading on this topic http://kidshealth.org/en/teens/std-hiv.html

Make sure that you understand and remember the knowledge you have gathered today.  The more informed you are on this deadly virus, the more you will be able to protect yourself.

HIV and AIDS is not a scary made up story, it is a reality.  Be sure to share this message with others, so that they can also be informed and be able to protect themselves.
