Teen Survival Guide: Health Tips for On-the-Go Girls. This looks like an interesting booklet for girls, published by girlshealth.gov. The section on reproductive health is simple, clear, and informative. It can be downloaded in PDF format, or ordered for free with a phone call.

The girlshealth.gov website (a division of HHS) also has a lot of links to teacher resources on various health topics. Click here and then explore the link to classroom tools.

There are some good lesson plans on this site. Check out the lessons listed under "Small Victories" on the lower left side of this page. They are written for adults, but could easily be adapted for teens. "Tiny Bites" is included in your resource file. I also liked "The Last Orange on Earth: an activity to teach mindful eating" (right side of same page) and included it in the resource file. It is written for elementary-aged kids, but I think older kids would enjoy it as well. After doing the activity, they could get into small groups and be assigned to come up with a similar activity using a different natural food.
