Activities that help students learn while doing are the most successful for teaching lifelong fitness. The Physical Best activity guides provide a wealth of activities designed specifically to help students learn through doing These are a great start to developing an excellent program, but you'll want to add more activities especially suited for your students. Following is a step-by-step procedure for developing your own activities.
Carefully consider the level of the students for which you're develop¬ing the activity.
Write out the concept you wish to teach, using language appropriate for the level you are teaching.
Spell out the purpose of the activity. What do you want your students to learn?
Determine what equipment you'll need.
Define the relationship of this activity to the national standards. This helps you keep your curriculum fo¬cused.
Write a set induction- How will you prepare students to learn,?
Develop a step-by-step procedure P~ for leading the activity: You might modify this after you've done the activity a few times and worked the "bugs" out
Think about what teaching hints you'll need to be aware of. Write this down so when you have a substitute, the sub can take advantage of your experience.
Remember to include a closure and an assessment for the activ¬ity. Check for student understanding.
Finally, plan for ways of extending the lesson. If the activity goes well, you'll want to challenge your students to take it to the next level or further assimilate the learning.
My Body
Primary Level
Growth and developmental influences on body composition Your body is made of billions of cells that need all type of foods to live. Your body shape and share type and size are influenced by many factors, some of which you can control an which you cannot. The uncontrollable factors are your genetics (family history) age, and gender. Controllable factors are how much you eat, and how much physical activity you do.
Purpose
Students will understand the factors that influence their body shape, type, and size and understand the uniqueness of each person and how each person is different in his or her nutrient and physical activity requirements.
Equipment Needed
- Variety of balls, such as, playground, Nerf tennis
- Hula hoops
Relationship to National Standards
Physical Education Standard 3: Student exhibits a physically active life style. ¬Student will identify the benefits derived from regular physical activity.
Health Education Standard 1: Student will comprehend concepts related to health promotion and disease prevention student will describe relationships between personal health behaviors and individual well-being.

Teaching Hints
Be sure to allow each student to select the ball he or she is comfortable with. Add claps, turns. and so on to the skills you're using to increase the level of challenge. Make sure that there are more than enough balls for every student in order that the majority get their choice.
Closure and Assessment

Try to get photos that arc of each person's whole body. Paste the photos side by side on a sheet of paper. Compare body shapes, type, and size. (Note: You may choose to make a sample photo array to use for comparison, rather than having all students bring in photos.)
Extending the Lesson
- Have each student draw a pic¬ture of her family involved in physical activity.
- Have each student draw a pic¬ture of himself doing his favorite activity or something he likes about himself.
Selecting Appropriate Lifetime Activities
Lifetime activity refers to activities that are accessible and enjoyable throughout one's life, especially those that adults are most likely to engage in regularly for recreational and health related fitness reasons over the course of a lifetime. What constitutes "accessible" and "enjoyable" will vary from individual to individual, of course, depending on an individual's interests, locale, and skills. Career and financial constraints may also play a role in an individual's choice of lifetime activities.
Carefully consider the level of the students for which you're develop¬ing the activity.
