Have your parents or anyone else ever told you to drink more water? You may know that water is good for you, and there may be more reasons than you thought! Join Mrs. Grack, who is a Certified Health Coach, for this one time class to learn and discuss: -Why water is important. -Ways to water your body. -How much we should drink. -The scoop on soda. -Ways to increase your flexibility. We will have discussion, and students are welcome and encouraged to participate. Prepare for class with a pencil and paper if you would like to take notes and a smile because smiling is good!
Learning Goals
The students will learn about the importance and benefits of drinking water. We will touch on the differences between water and sodas and how they each affect your health. At the end of the class, I will ask the students to share one thing that they can do now with the information that they have learned.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
While I would not consider these two things mature content, I am sharing them here in case anybody is sensitive to these topics.
I will share about how water helps us go to the bathroom and how lack of water can make it difficult to go to the bathroom. I will talk a little bit about calories and about how people who drink more soda and less water are more likely to gain weight and why this happens.
Supply List
You do not need any materials, yet you may want to have a pencil and paper handy in case you want to take notes. Optionally, plan to have some room around your area if you would like to do a flexibility activity toward the end of class. No exercise is required.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
