Mrs. Conley 9/16/11

Health classes are in full swing! I can't believe we are already halfway through September.

Sixth grade classes are continuing to talk about mental and emotional health. We have spent a lot of time discussing stress and positive ways to deal with our stress. The first 6th grade health test will be next week. Students will receive a study guide but if they'd like to get a head start on reviwing, they can study the vocabulary words in their health notes!

Seventh graders are wrapping up a mini-unit on friendship and peer pressure. They completed essays on the topic of friendship. Next week we will begin discussing tobacco and what it does to the body.

Eighth grade classes watched the movie Supersize Me this week. We are continuing our discussion on nutrition and will talk about eating disorders next week. Next week will be the first unit test over the topic of Nutrition. Students can begin reviewing their nutrition notes in their folders.
