Health Assignment for Tuesday 9/8 and Thursday 9/10

Posted on September 4, 2015 by felicia.kucharski
After you have done your reading, current event, and health journal, you will get a packet that will guide you through the rest of chapter 2 and 3. This assignment should take both days to get through.

Below you will find the powerpoints for chapter 2- sections 2 and 3, and chapter 3- sections 1-3. You will use those powerpoints to find the information in the packets you’ve been given. PLEASE DO NOT WRITE IN THE PACKETS. You will write all of the answers on your paper that’s titled “Chapter 2: Notes.” As you are going alone through the sections, remember to also be writing down ALL VOCABULARY words on your paper titled “Chapter 2: Vocab.”

As you are completing the work on your paper, please FORMAT  and LABEL it as each page is labeled in the packet. For example:
Chapter 2: Notes
Section 2: Self-Esteem and Your Health
1.

2.

3.

4.

Building Health Skills (This one does not have answers from a powerpoint. This is for you to do using your own brain.)
1.

2.

3.

4.

5.


Expressing Your Emotions
1.

2.

3.

4.
…and so on.
When you move on to chapter 3, please differentiate on your paper that you are now working on chapter 3. (Ex. “Chapter 3: Notes” and “Chapter 3: Vocabulary”)

*You do NOT need to do the Media Wise homework.

**If you are having trouble finding the information you need. Do your best to answer using common sense and your already existing knowledge. I will go over all of this when I get back.

Turn in packets at the end of each class to the substitute. Hold on to all of your work.

Powerpoints you will need:
