P.e And Health Resourceshealthy Active Living Program
The curriculum begins with two key lessons that focus on the recommended daily amount of fruits and vegetables, and recommended amount of physical activity for adults. These lessons are followed by seven nutrient lessons, a community empowerment lesson, six physical activity lessons, reproducible educational handouts, and an evaluation. The physical activity lessons incorporate various low cost exercises. Physical activity handouts include exercise and dance explanations with pictures. Also, the Seasonality Guide includes information specific to the state of California.
The first two lessons should be completed first and after that, lessons can be completed in any order. For evaluation purposes, a brief, seven-question nutrition and physical activity quiz is included to measure participants’ knowledge. The quiz can be administered before and after the program is completed. An answer key is not included; however, the answers can be found in the curriculum.
The following materials are displays, kits, and games for health promoters and educators, teachers, professionals and health intermediaries.
