Mini Health Lesson Plan

My Mini Health Lesson Plan was created to allow students to learn how to set nutritional goals that they can carry with them throughout their lives. This 10-minute lesson focuses on the importance of healthy nutrition and how to set reasonable goals that students can reach. The activity in my lesson is called Four Healthy Corners, and it allows students to see different goals and think of ways they can easily reach those goals. This lesson was made to engage my students while giving them a chance to connect what they are learning to their everyday lives.

Creating this lesson plan showed me how important it is for students to learn about nutrition. This lesson plan keeps students engaged while delivering a fun, short lesson on nutrition goals. A short lesson leaves no room for error, so I had to make it simple and easy for my students to understand. I like the activity in my lesson because it allows students to be active while also using their mental skills to create goals for themselves. If I had more time for this lesson, I would allow my students extra time to think about and discuss their goals and explain why they chose that goal. Overall, I think this lesson will help me grow on the health side of being a PE teacher and give me a better opportunity to implement health into my students' daily lives.
