Please contact me should you have any questions or concerns about your student.
Health class will cover many different topics regarding health and wellness.
The areas of physical, mental, emotional, and social health will be explained and explored.
One of my main goals for students in this class is for them to learn to evaluate information
in order to make good decisions for themselves and develop a healthy lifestyle.
Course Methods
Students will be doing a wide variety of projects and activities designed to facilitate
their understanding and application of the lifeskills involved with a healthy lifestyle.
These projects will occassionaly require preparation at home,
but normally students will not have daily homework assignments.
The curriculum used is based on the Texas Essential Knowledge
and Skills for Health Educations in the Sixth Grade.
The textbook to be used in this course includes the chapter topics of:
Health and Wellnes, Making Good Decisions, Self-Esteem, Body Image, Friends and Family,
Coping with Coflict and Stress, Caring for Your Body, Your Body Systems, Growth and Development,
Controlling Disease, Physical Fitness, Nutrition, Understanding Drugs, and Tobacco and Alcohol.
