About this resource
What's inside this resource
This first grade personal health unit is built for young learners who are still developing as readers. An adult reads each page aloud, and children answer by pointing, marking a picture choice, drawing or telling. Four short lessons cover moving and resting, choosing a fruit and a vegetable and asking for water, naming a feeling and finding a trusted adult, and practicing a clear request for help.
Tasks use simple story characters. Tess feels tired after a game and picks a quiet break, Jo adds a fruit or vegetable to rice and beans, and Ben asks the teacher to help find a lost lunch bag. Page 5 presents four fresh situations as a practical check, and the key page includes an assessment record for marking whether each skill was shown independently, shown with a prompt or needs more practice. The teacher guide lists materials, suggests about 15 to 20 minutes per lesson and notes that no food tasting or physical performance is required.
- Grade 1: movement, rest, food variety, water, feelings and asking for help
- Seven pages: 16 tasks, a teacher lesson guide, and a key with an assessment record
