Added by Brett Baisch on August 12, 2019

This is a short, but adaptable six-lesson unit on Healthy Eating and Physical Activity. The unit is mostly focused on healthy eating, but aspects of physical activity are included and can be added. This was primarily developed for high school, but many parts can be used for middle school. These six lessons address many important topics, standards, and skills. These materials include:

  • HEPA Resource Book – Students use this as a graphic organizer to complete work
  • HEPA Lessons 1-6 Slides – Teacher uses this to guide lessons
  • HEPA Teacher Resources – Teacher uses these resources to further advance the unit, help students and parents related to healthy eating and physical activity, access data/statistics, etc.
