Mr. Owens's health classes are studying the physical activity and nutrition unit. They previously learned about the F.I.T.T. Principle and its 5 main components: muscular endurance, muscular strength, cardiorespiratory endurance, flexibility, and body composition. They also reviewed how to make a workout/activity program. In the photos below, the students made their own workouts; they made the workouts in their group assignments of 3-5 kids. The learning goal of this lesson was to ensure that students have the skills to create and perform a program that will benefit their health. #healthyforlife
