US Grade 6 - 9
Beginner - Intermediate Level
In this class, students will be taught a variety of Health and Wellness topics commonly taught at the middle school level (Grades 6-8) and commonly seen in curriculums such as HealthSmart. The units include: * Nutrition * Alcohol & Other Drugs * Reproductive Health * Relationships (More detailed information on the lessons and topics covered can be found in the class syllabus!) The class will be very student centered and engaging, including consistent input from students, questions being asked and responded to, and student elaboration of thoughts and responses. After teaching for 8 years, I find my teaching style to be extremely relationship driven. I not only want to educate my students in the class, but also foster a safe and comfortable environment for them to ask tough questions, and feel free to be themselves. Health topics can be HARD for some students to talk about. By the end of the semester, I am confident students will be a little bit more comfortable in just talking and being open about their health and wellness.
Learning Goals
Students will leave this course more knowledgeable and comfortable in discussing topics regarding overall health and wellness.

Nutrition: Food Labels
In this lesson, we will dive into exploring Food Labels and nutrition facts on different food products. We will explore why food labels exist, and what everything on the labels means, from the concept of the "daily value", to how to do the math to break down nutrients per serving or per container.
