Eksperimentel: Asthma in-school class
Provided in 16 15-minute sessions (4 hours total didactic time); scheduled 3 sessions/week.
The content is provided by trained asthma educators.
The Asthma Plan for Kids (AP-K) is a 7-step curriculum for children to use when responding to asthma symptoms.
Skills practice with placebo metered dose inhaler (MDI) and peak expiratory flow (PEF) meters with PEF score interpretation.
Topics include (a) identifying lung function, asthma warning signs, symptoms, and triggers; (b) learning skills to manage symptoms, including PEF meter score interpretation, communication with adults (e.g.
teachers, coaches, family members), medication use and MDI technique; (c) evaluating asthma symptoms and the effectiveness of management; and (d) discussing how to stay active in a safe manner.

Eksperimentel: Asthma Day Camp
The asthma day camp is provided in a single day session (5.5 hours total) by trained camp staff.
The same skills (i.e., placebo metered dose inhaler (MDI) and peak expiratory flow (PEF) meters) and topics [a) identifying lung function, asthma warning signs, symptoms, and triggers; (b) learning skills to manage symptoms, including PEF meter score interpretation, communication with adults (e.g.
teachers, coaches, family members), medication use and MDI technique; (c) evaluating asthma symptoms and the effectiveness of management; and (d) discussing how to stay active in a safe manner] are covered as those in the asthma in-school classes.
