Title: Making the Case for Health: Addressing a Community Health Problem
URL: https://lsintspl3.wgbh.org/en-us/lesson/ilwgbh17-bbl-ilhealth/1
Description:

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than half of all Americans are overweight or obese. (An obese person has more body fat than what is healthy.) In 2010, 15 percent of America’s youth were obese. For people of color who live in economically depressed areas, it was nearly triple that number.

In this lesson, students will get the chance to think about what they might do to make their school a healthier place for all students. They will learn how to develop and present an evidence-based argument about a change they would like to see in order to help convince others to join the effort.

Title: The Energy Equation
URL: https://www.cdc.gov/bam/teachers/energy.html
Description:

Most kids (and most adults) understand the need to make healthy food choices, get enough sleep, or participate in physical activity regularly. But people do not always base their actions on what they know. One of the challenges of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is to help people translate health information into action.

In this activity, students review the components of the Energy Equation: Food + Sleep + Physical Activity = Energy. They think about the barriers to and benefits of acting on each component of the equation. Finally, students develop a plan for putting their health knowledge into practice.
