** LESSON PLAN FORMAT **

__** Topic: **__ Nutrition and personal health Students will understand that a healthy diet can improve overall health. Students will know vocabulary: nutrient, unsaturated fats, saturated fats, trans fats, calorie. Understand connection between physical activity and calorie burning. Student will be able to recognize connection between dietary behavior, activity, and health outcomes. Maine Learning Results: Health Education and Physical Education Standards Content Area: Health Standard Label: A. Health Concepts Standard: A1-Healthy Behaviors and Personal Health Grades: 6-8 Students examine the relationship between behavior and personal health. Performance Indicators: a, b, c. Students will create SuperTracker accounts to track their eating and exercise habits for one week. The website creates visual graphics and charts to display information to provide feedback to students regarding their daily diet and activity levels. Students will reflect upon these graphics each night in a log. At the end of the week, students will write a reflection about their results and ways in which they can use these results to improve their health. These results, log, and essay will be collected by the teacher for feedback. ** English: **Students will be writing log entries and an essay to reflect upon their SuperTracker results. Teacher will guide a class discussion about nutrition and activity choices and the potential impacts on health. Teacher will call upon students to encourage participation in the lesson. Teacher will line students up in order of their birthdays throughout the year to use this to break students into pairs. Students will work in these pairs to research information about nutrition, exercise, and behavior on the internet and SuperTracker site to fill out graphic organizer as a review about prior lessons. Students will then work individually to create SuperTracker profiles and input their information into the tool.

 * Verbal-Linguistic:** Students will discuss and learn new vocabulary words about nutrition during the class discussion.

**Logical/Mathematical:** Students will be using a calorie counter on the Supertracker website to gain insight into their expected calorie consumption in a day versus their actually calorie consumption.

**Visual/Spatia**l: Supertracker website provide results that appeal to visual learners because they break information down into visual layouts, graphs, and pie charts.

**Bodily/Kinesthetic:** For one week, students will be asked to track their daily physical activities on Supertracker.

**Musical/Rhythmic:** Students will have option to discuss and perform workouts that involve music during the week of Supertracker usage, such as zumba. **Intrapersonal:** For one week students will track their personal food consumption and activity in a log or journal with a reflection of their thoughts. **Interpersonal:** Students will discuss nutrition and information as a class. Naturalist: Students have the option of taking part in outdoor physical activities to improve their fitness.

The SuperTracker tool is a Type II technology because it provides an outlet for students to analyze their personal behaviors and personal health in a way that they could not do with simply pen and paper. This tool incorporates student personal health, behavior, and needs to provide immediate visual feedback to educate students on their nutritional intakes and activity levels. As an extra challenge, students will be offered extra credit to create an account for a friend or family member to track their food intake and activity for one day and provide a written analysis of the results and suggestion to improve health behaviors to be submitted by teacher. The choice of whether or not to show this written assignment to the person they chose would be optional to the student and would not effect their grade.
 * __ Modifications/Accommodations __**
 * // From IEP’s ( Individual Education Plan), 504’s, ELLIDEP (English Language Learning Instructional Delivery Education Plan) //**// I will review student’s IEP, 504 or ELLIDEP and make appropriate modifications and accommodations. //
 * Plan for accommodating absent students: ** When a student is absent from class, he or she can access the notes and assignments from the day on the teacher's class wiki page. On this date's wikipage there will be written instructions by the teacher on how to use the SuperTracker site. Students would be encouraged to see the teacher if they are absent on this day as the site is something that would be beneficial to review face to face with the teacher. On the wikipage would be a written explanation of the SuperTracker assignment for the week. For any excused absence as determined by the school, all deadlines will be extended dependent upon the date student returns to class. For all unexcused absences, students will be held to original deadlines. All students are responsible for submitting late work, to which they will receive partial credit.

__ Day One (80 minute days) 10 __ (15 min) Hook: Fast Food Calorie charts. Teacher will use projector to display fast food calorie charts and facilitate class discussion. (5 min) Teacher will line students up in order of their birthdays. Teacher will break students into pairs. (10 min) Students will work in pairs to fill out graphic organizers as a review from prior lessons. (5 min) Students will share a few things from their graphic organizers and turn desks back to normal formation. (15 min) Teacher will use projector to guide class to make SuperTracker profiles and learn to input information into the tool. (20 min) Students will explore the SuperTracker tool and input their information. (10 min) Teacher will review the homework assignment: input food intake and physical activity into SuperTracker tool each night of the school week and write log entry to reflect on results. At the end of the week, students will be writing a short essay reflecting on their results and ways in which they can improve their health.

Day 1: The classroom will be set up with the desks being in rows of twos. The teacher will have the projector set up to a laptop so that students can all view the laptop image on the screen. Teacher will explore the Calorie King website with the class and facilitate class discussion on the findings. Next, teacher will line up the students in order of their birthdays throughout the year. Using this order of students, teacher will break students into groups of two to fillout a graphic organizer as a review from prior lessons on nutrition and exercise. Students may use their laptops to research information if needed. Teacher will facilitate class discussion to share a few facts as a review. Next, students will go back to their original seating and desk formations. Teacher will project his or her laptop to the large screen and instruct students to have their laptops and navigate to ChooseMyPlate.gov. Teacher will guide students to make SuperTracker accounts and give a brief tutorial on the site. Students will have time to explore the site and begin to input their information. Teacher will circulate the room to assist students in the process. Students will use the tool to track their calorie intake, nutriton, and activity for one week. Students will be asked to write a log entry each night about their findings on the tool and their results. At the end of the week students will submit their results along with their log entries and a brief essay about ways in which they can improve their health behaviors based upon their findings.
