I am pleased to be teaching Health and P.E. this year.
Course Description: Our Health class is a once a week, full-year course, and is required for graduation. The course is designed to be a general overview of many of the issues that affect a teen’s health from a Christian viewpoint. The text emphasizes that healthy individuals should have balance among all the components of health and the structure of the course stresses the responsibility of the individual to be a steward of all that God has given to us.
Areas of study include: Basic Health Facts, Body Basics, Mental and Emotional Health, Social Health, Nutrition, Exercise, Safety, First Aid, Diseases, Personal Hygiene, Environment and Health, Drugs, Alcohol and Tobacco and Growth and Development.
Students will be expected to watch the class lectures and complete the homework if they miss class for any reason.
