We took a break from physical activity to add a few Health lessons.
6th grade watched a DVD on Hygiene and Sun Safety. They answered questions related to the video as a follow up.
7th grade did a "Website Scavenger Hunt" where they used their laptops to search government approved websites regarding Teen Health issues. They filled in a worksheet with questions in regards to Nutrition, Exercise, Peer Pressure, and Puberty.
