Found this tonight- a PBS film on the 1918 panflu produced in early 2000′s (?) with teachers’ guides. (I ordered 3 for our local board of health to use)
Looks/sounds appropriate for older children (content, wording)

The transcipt is on-line as well under The American Experience. Great show - very eye-opening

Teachers are beginning to be informed. The National Education Association’s NEATODAY magazine (Sept. ‘06) has a 2 pp article on avian influenza.

School districts are woefully unprepared but this is a start. 2.8 million teachers, administrators, & support staff are members of the NEA.
