Padlet Unit Plan

     For this interactivity I chose to use the topic of "Living a Healthy Lifestyle."  I chose this topic because it has similarities to my interactivity 3 lesson, also it is a big topic in today's youth. It is extremely important for kids to learn the basics of how to be healthy and live that lifestyle because half of our nations kids are becoming obese.

    For this lesson it is very important for students to first understand what living a healthy lifestyle means.  From there we go on to talking about nutrition, exercise, and everyday activities that can help lead us to a healthy lifestyle.  For some students who are athletes it may be easier for them to stay active and healthy, but for students who are not athletes this may be difficult to tackle or understand hence why this lesson is very important.  My essential questions and unit goals were developed through my experiences and knowledge of this topic in order to pass it off to learning students.

    The technologies I will be using in this class are computers, Eat & Move-O-Matic application, and Powtoon.  I feel these technologies will enhance learning experiences in this class for a few reasons.  The computers will give students a chance to research topics given by myself in relation to exercise and nutrition.  The Eat & Move-O-Matic app will enhance class learning of different foods and how they negatively/positively effect our body.  Powtoon will be used as a fun interactive way for students to create their presentations on a topic they choose from.
