Course Description

The NHASA health class is a full year class that will cover the content areas of community health, consumer health, environmental health, family education, growth and development, personal health, nutrition, disease prevention, safety and substance abuse. The online course is based on the "Differentiated Health and Sexuality Education Activities Booklet" by Leslie Pettigrew and will use various types of activities such as group discussions, cooperative activities, role-play, videos, guest speakers and research projects to meet state mandates for health requirements. There will be a teacher advisor present during all class times to assist students in completing assignments. Students will meet two days a week to complete activities online and in small groups. Students will learn to access valid health information, products and services, advocate for personal, family and community health, analyze media messages, use communication skills, use decision-making skills, set goals, acquire conflict resolution skills, refusal skills, learn to manage stress and develop an appreciation for the diversity of our student body.

Hello Health Class!
I hope all is well with you and you have been able to log in your food log over the past three days, or at least three days in total.  I did not get any emails except for one, so I am assuming all went well.
Today during class I would like you to go in and add your physical activity.  You will need to choose

"The standard option"     to do this under "assess your physical activity.  Try to make this as accurate as possible for a "normal" weekday.
Next, you will enter foods for today so far and save.  After you have done this, you should be directed to an "Analyze Your Food Intake" Screen.  Here there are many option for looking at your entries and I would like you to take some time checking out the different options, particularly the last one called "Healthy Eating History".   Make sure you spend some time checking out the different options as on Thursday I will be asking you to use this information to answer some questions and responses about your diet and what you have learned during our nutrition unit.  Email me if you have any questions.
Happy Investigating!
Margot
