Today, we're starting with a self-reflection activity. Everyone, I want you to keep a 7-day log of your lifestyle habits, including your sleep, diet, exercise, and stress. Why do you think this exercise is important?
I guess it can help us see if we’re doing things right or if we need to change.
Yeah, and it might show us how stress affects our other habits.
Exactly! This kind of self-awareness can lead to positive changes. Remember the acronym 'HABITS' — Healthy Actions Build Improved Time management and Satisfaction. Let’s reflect on our habits and see what we can improve!
What should we do if we find we have bad habits?
Great question! We can set small, achievable goals to replace those habits. For instance, if you're not getting enough sleep, aim to go to bed 15 minutes earlier each night.
So, it’s all about making gradual changes, right?
Exactly! Gradual changes often lead to sustainable habits. Let’s summarize: tracking our habits helps us understand our lifestyle better, and small changes can lead to significant health improvements.

Now, let’s move on to our class project: designing and running a healthy-eating campaign. What do you think makes a successful campaign?
I think it should be fun and interactive, like cooking demos or taste tests!
How about we also provide educational materials so people learn while they participate?
Good ideas! Engaging the audience is key. Let’s remember, 'EDUCATE': Engage, Determine needs, Use catchy messages, Create excitement, Advocate for health, Teach skills, and Evaluate the impact. Do you have any ideas for catchy messages?
Maybe something like 'Eat Bright, Feel Right!'?
That’s a great slogan! Remember to keep your goal in mind: the campaign is not just about eating healthy but making it accessible and enjoyable.
When do we start?
Let’s get started right away. Planning and execution are essential! And as we reflect upon the campaign, consider 'P.A.C.T' — Plan, Act, Communicate, and Test — to ensure its effectiveness.

Our final activity focuses on creating infographics about global health issues. Why do we think infographics are effective?
They are visually attractive and easier to understand!
Yeah, and people remember visuals better than just text.
You’re right! Infographics can condense complex information into digestible visuals. Think about the principle 'V.A.S.T' — Visual Appeal Simplifies Truth. What topics should your infographic cover?
We could highlight the impact of obesity worldwide and provide tips for healthier living.
Excellent choice! Let’s also make sure to include statistics and real-world examples to back up your points.
Should we consider our audience when designing it?
Absolutely! Understanding your audience ensures that you communicate effectively. Let's review: Infographics should be attractive, informative, and audience-specific, leveraging visuals to convey essential messages.

• Self-Reflection: Keep a 7-day log of your lifestyle habits—sleep, diet, exercise, stress—and identify strengths and areas to improve.
Detailed Explanation
This activity encourages individuals to track their daily habits over a week. By logging their sleep patterns, dietary choices, exercise routines, and stress levels, individuals can reflect on their overall lifestyle. The goal is to recognize positive behaviors and identify areas that may require improvement. For example, if someone notices they are getting less than the recommended amount of sleep, they might decide to prioritize rest better moving forward.
Examples & Analogies
Think of this as a personal health diary. Just as a student takes notes in class to understand subjects better, tracking your habits can help you understand your health choices. If you noticed that you are consistently eating snacks late at night, you might realize that you should plan healthier meals throughout the day to avoid late-night cravings.

• Class Project: Design and run a healthy-eating campaign or a lunchtime exercise club.
Detailed Explanation
This project involves students collaborating to create a campaign focused on promoting healthy eating habits within their school or community. This can include developing informative posters, organizing events like healthy recipe exchanges, or even running a lunchtime club where students participate in physical activities together. The primary objective is to encourage peers to make healthier food choices and incorporate physical activity into their daily routines.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine you and your friends decide to set up a 'Healthy Challenge Month' at school. You could challenge each other to bring healthy lunches and share recipes. It would be similar to a sports team training together; it fosters a sense of community and support, making the pursuit of better health more fun and achievable.

• Create an Infographic: Illustrate key global health issues and recommended lifestyle strategies to your peers.
Detailed Explanation
In this activity, students create an infographic that visually represents significant global health issues alongside recommended lifestyle strategies to address these issues. This task promotes creativity and critical thinking, as students must research and distill complex information into clear, engaging visuals that can educate their peers. The infographics can include data, illustrations, and easy-to-understand language.
Examples & Analogies
Think of an infographic as a visual story. Just like a comic book uses images and dialogue to communicate a message quickly and engagingly, an infographic does the same with statistics and visuals about health. When you see colorful charts about how exercise can prevent diseases, it makes the information more accessible and interesting.
