can take care of themselves. This material will also aide them in Health classes
in upper grades.
4. Formative Assessment Criteria for Success: Students and I will know if they
successfully met the outcomes by students taking a test about health on Khan
Academy. During the test, questions will appear such as: How many parts are

5. Activities/Tasks: Students will engage in activities such as Paint on Word to
draw what comes to their mind when they hear the word health. Ex) Heart,
food, sports, washing hands. They will also do physical activities. Ex) jumping
jacks, throwing a ball outside, racing. Another activity students will do, is acting
scenarios out like brushing their teeth, flossing, and washing their hands.
Students will also get to explain the material they are learning by hearing the
teacher explain a word and conversing with another student about the word.
Ex) Toothbrush: A small brush with a large handle, used for cleaning teeth.
Student A to Student B: I Have a purple toothbrush! Student B to Student A:

involves a young boy who is sick and the students will write a letter to him
