Scoliosis, a medical condition which causes curvature of the spine, will not become disabling if treated early. Today, scoliosis checks are routine procedures for 5th - 8th grade students and school nurses. This informative overview, aimed at preparing students for the scoliosis screening, combines live-action demonstrations and onscreen graphics to define the condition, take viewers through a sample screening, and point out common treatment measures (such as braces). A good introduction for elementary and middle school health classes. Aud: I, J. (R. Pitman)
