Description

This class will provide relevant information and cover the basics of the human body, diseases, nutrition, exercise etc. Assignments will be engaging and designed to help students make good decisions about their health.

We don’t use textbooks and there will only be a few quizzes – no tests or exams. Mastery of the material will be evaluated through projects and the responses to the material studied.

The class is taught by 3 moms who couldn’t find a fun, interesting, and useful Health curriculum for their own children, so they decided to create one. It will not cover sex education (we will cover the reproductive system as part of body systems but not in much detail) as we believe that is best taught by parents.

Topics covered include:
Body systems (as this is necessary for an understanding of health)
Mental and Emotional Health
Diseases – what causes them and how to identify the common ones
Sleep
Exercise – why it is important and the different types
Nutrition
Eating Disorders
Addiction
First Aid
