Health Promotion and Risk Reduction C1. Healthy Practices and Behaviors Grades 6-8 Students demonstrate a healthy practice and/or behavior to maintain or improve their own health in both of the following areas: healthy eating and physical activity. ** Rationale: ** Students will expand their knowledge on proper dieting and physical activity. They will be required to apply their understanding on these areas of health through many activities and class lessons. ** Assessment ** ** Formative (Assessment for Learning) ** Students will respond to questions developed pertaining to the lesson and the teacher will check for an understanding of the intended material using the thumbs up - thumbs down method. Once students receive constructive feedback from their peers and teachers, they will then revise their work accordingly. Teachers will leave comments on the wiki-space, which will allow their students to refine their work. ** Summative (Assessment of Learning) ** Throughout this unit, students will be required to complete multiple assignments testing their comprehension of the intended material. Below is a list and brief description of the assignments they will be expected to complete. Students will be graded using a scale of 550 points. **__ Prezi (40 Points) __** Students will be asked to develop an informative/educational website directly related to healthy behaviors through healthy dieting and proper nutrition. Student’s will required to develop a well balanced diet and a short lesson explaining how they established nutrition within their diet and what methods they used. Students will be then be asked to teach their fellow classmates on their material concerning proper dieting and nutrition. ** English: ** will be incorporated through the verbal productions and acting the students are required to develop through their commercial. ** Art: ** Students will have to create a product using originality and creativity to motivate people of all styles. Students will know how they can alter their eating habits to improve their diet. Using a T-Chart, students will need to document their findings covering unhealthy and healthy eating behaviors with a brief written explanation. With this information, students will be asked to develop an informative/educational website through Prezi to teach their fellow classmates on specific topic concerning proper dieting and nutrition. Using the four corners method, I will split the classroom up in four areas and disperse students accordingly. Using this method, students will engage in conversation among their group and discuss the assigned topic. This will test student’s ability to converse about the topic and they are expected to contribute some intellectual information. Using the teams developed through four corners, I will use the method of RoundRobin Brainstorming to evaluate the students understanding of the material. Each group will be posed with a question and each student is responsible for developing their own answer. The students with then share their information with the rest of their group, and then the groups will collaboratively report out to the classroom. ** Logical ** - Students will plan out the information for the wiki page on unhealthy versus unhealthy eating behaviors. ** Visual - ** Students will watch a movie and create a brochure highlighting the key concepts of health in regards to healthy dieting. ** Kinesthetic - ** Students will design a board game that incorporates the advantages and disadvantages of healthy/unhealthy dieting. ** Natural - ** Students will be required to bring in one natural food product (healthy alternative) for the class to sample**.** ** Musical - ** Students create a short song that promotes healthy eating behaviors. // I will review student’s IEP, 504 or ELLIDEP and make appropriate modifications and accommodations. //  Absent: If a student is absent and misses in class work and assignments, then we will schedule and after school in a meeting discuss a timely schedule for make-up work according to the circumstances. Technology will be integrated into this lesson through the use of the online interactive program, Prezi. Using the information gathered throughout the research, student’s will required to develop a well balanced diet and a short lesson explaining how they established nutrition within their diet and what methods they used. Students will be then be asked to teach their fellow classmates on their material concerning proper dieting and nutrition. - Textbooks - Laptops (For myself and students) - LCD Projector - T Chart Handout - Product Rubric - Question Handout [] - This will be used to find the ISP chart handout from this website. [|Rubric] - This will be used to help make a good rubric to judge students product. [] - This program will be used for the final lesson project. ** // Rationale:  // ** As a teacher I made sure I provided my students with many choices. They were given the opportunity to analyze, evaluate and expand on their are of interest. They were working in a versatile environment. Beach Ball: For the beach ball learners, in this lesson students will be able to use the variety of Internet resources to research information pertaining to nutrition and physical activity. Students will also have a choice of activities because they will have many options of how they would like to make their presentation using Prezi. The students will also have the freedom to share and expand ideas through the think pair share discussion activity. Clipboard: For the clipboard learner’s students will be able to fill out a fact and opinion worksheet, which will help students organize their thoughts. There will be structure on how the Prezi is created, and this structure will come from the rubric that students will be able to refer to when making their Prezi. The rubric will also bring clear expectations for the students, so everyone will know what is expected. Microscope: For microscope learner’s students will be able to analyze the different resources provided so students can decide what information they would like to use in their Prezi project. Students will have discussion time when they participate in think pair share discussion exercise. Puppy: Students that are puppy learners will have a comfortable environment with in the classroom during the time of this lesson. The atmosphere will be encouraging because everyone's ideas will be supported. Lastly, every student will have the respect of their colleagues because everyone will listen to each others ideas, and the facts they have learned. ** // Rationale:  // ** Students will expand their knowledge on proper dieting and physical activity.

I will be teaching from the front of the room, within the break of the desks. ** Day 1 (80 mins)  ** - Introduce Topic – What Students Already Know (5 minutes) - Nutritional Analysis – Favorite food and drink (10 minutes) - Work on T-Charts Individually (25 minutes) - Class Discussion – Teams Report Out (20 minutes) - Questionnaire – Finish For Homework (15 minutes) - Assign Prezi Groups – Continue Next Class (5 minutes) ** Day 2 (80 mins)  ** - Overview of Previous Class/Class Discussion (5 minutes) - Go Over Homework – Questions (5 minutes) - Work on Prezi Project (55 minutes) - Report Out to Class (5 minutes) - End Class Discussion (5 minutes) Students will understand that they will need to practice healthy behaviors and eating patterns in order to improve/maintain their overall health. Developing healthy habits is the initial step to improving a person’s health. It is important to expand your knowledge on health early on in your youth so that you can modify your habits and develop the proper methods to living an overall healthy life. This will assist in avoiding health complications and help to improve your overall quality of life. Students will demonstrate a healthy practice/or behavior to maintain or improve their own health in both of the following areas: nutrition and physical activity. Students will use the Internet to look up the nutritional information on the foods/drinks that they most commonly consume. They will then briefly compare them with a healthier alternative food/drink source. Students will know how they can alter their eating habits to improve their diet. Using a T-Chart, students will need to document their findings covering unhealthy and healthy eating behaviors with a brief written explanation. Students will respond to questions developed pertaining to the lesson and the teacher will check for an understanding of the intended material using the thumbs up - thumbs down method.

Obesity is on the rise and continues to be a problem present in younger and younger generations. In schools around America, a majority of students are eating higher caloric processed foods and engaging in less physical activity. This evolving sedentary lifestyle has been caused for a number of reasons, a few of those include the rise in technological activities, availability of processed and refined foods and less outdoor activity in children. Throughout this lesson, students will uncover the truth about nutrition and discover how to engage in more physical activity. Students will know how they can alter their eating habits to improve their diet.
