I have to develop a lesson plan for

Question

a health unit on "What Makes Us Grow"
based on a class size of 15 children.
I have to include objectives, the
time required, materials needed,
learning activities, measures for evaluation, and any teacher resource
information.
Does anyone know of any websites that
can help me? This is for elementary
school children.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank You!!

Answer 1

I am wondering if you are dealing with physical growth, or emotional/cognitive growth.

Physical growth is easy: hormones, and nutrition.

cognitive growth: hormones, and internalized information processing

emotional growth: brain development, hormones, experience with other humans, and the process of psyche development.

All three are normal processes that we observe in all humans, and in some animals.
