BH-y curriculum for middle school Roseto Community Health

 Well, Roseto. (Wikipedia page) COMMUNITY HEALTH

Gladwell, in 'Outliers' tells the story of Roseto PA, which had NO HEART ATTACKS.
THAT IS, AS LONG AS THEY HAD COMMUNITY.
It wasn't the gardening, it was life organized around the Church Year.
They lost their health, when they lost community.
 
--How to do this today?
 
I propose having members of the community tell the story of their profession, starting with the supposed Bering land bridge crossing, and going until Mars has been settled for 50 years.
 
Three parts: Land bridge until 2025. 'America B. C.' by Fell would be good on this.
Now until Mars settlement for 50 years. 'Critical Path' by Fuller would be good.
What to do now?
 
Example: Dentist. Bad news until dentistry and anaesthesia, now we may be able to regrow teeth, Mars?--maybe a dental officer.
 
The teacher can clothe all this in Ussher/Jordan, etc.
 
Once a week for the community, put it in a membership site. Teach 'em 'respondeo'--that the past and the future create the present.
