Product description

From the author

This is a Physical Activity Chart for learners of any age.

There are 2 pages included.

The first page gives students a chance to write down all of the physical and non-physical activities they do in a week.

The second page allows them to reflect and come up with an adjusted plan to increase their physical activity.

In the classroom

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Record approximate weekly time spent in four activity categories: on-screen, other non-active, active leisure/sports, and active chores.

  • Reflect in writing on what a personal activity log reveals about one's own lifestyle.

  • Design a revised weekly activity plan aimed at improving overall wellbeing.

Teaching tips

  • Have students complete the first chart over an actual week (or from memory of a typical week) before starting the reflection questions, since the prompts ask them to interpret their own data.

  • Pair students for the "share your thoughts with a friend" prompt on page 1 rather than leaving it as silent independent work, since the chart is written as a paired discussion point.

  • Use the second "NEW and IMPROVED" chart as a follow-up assignment after the first chart and reflection are complete; students may plan changes during the same session.

Skills covered

  • Self-monitoring and data recording — students estimate and log time spent in four activity categories across a typical week.

  • Reflective analysis — students interpret their own logged data to answer what it reveals about their lifestyle.

  • Goal-setting — students redesign their weekly activity plan on the second chart to target improved wellbeing.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Are the two pages the same chart, or does the second page build on the first?

The second page repeats the same four-category format under a "NEW and IMPROVED" heading, used to redesign the weekly plan after students have reflected on their first chart's results.
