For activity one the students made various graphs and posters, showing how much people can save when they dont spend their money on a pack of cigaretts a day. The students taped their posters on the walls of the school so all their peers could see what could be bought. Each student picked 3 items they wanted to purchase with the money they saved from not smoking.  For example the students learned that they can buy 5 Official NBA Rondo Jerseys with a months worth of money they saved from not buying Parliment Lights.

The 84 represents the 84% of Massachusetts teens who choose not to smoke.
