Healthful Living Class

NC- North Carolina DPI Elementary Education Specialty Area Standards
Standard: Standard 5: Elementary teachers have an understanding of the major concepts of healthful living.
Indicator: Indicator 1: Teachers understand the foundations of good heath and help students understand the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
Indicator: Indicator 2: Teachers are alert to major health issues related to children.
Standard: Standard 13: Working alone, or with healthful living specialists, elementary teachers create opportunities for student development and practice of skills that contribute to good health.

Context:

I created this lesson plan with Patty Buckner to meet the requirements of HED 3645 class. Patty and I researched Tobacco prevention information and lessons. We also asked for guidance from Pheobe Pillot health specialist. We taught this lesson to our HED 3645 class.

I created the standard five check list to show that my HED 3645 class has given me the knowledge and understanding of the foundations of good health and health issues related to children

Impact:

Creating and teaching this lesson reinforced how important it is for us as classroom teachers to take an active part it teaching tobacco prevention. It has also shown me how many resources there are to help teach it if you take the time to look.

The HED 3645 class will impact my student greatly because I will have the knowledge needed to teach them the main concepts in health.

Alignment:

I have me standard 5 indicator 1 by creating a lesson plan that will help students understand the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. Also see check list.

I have met standard 5 indicator 2 by see check list.

I have met standard 13 by seeking guidance from Pheobe Pillot a healthful living specialist.
