<h3 class="lesson">Lesson 1:</h3>
<ol class="lessonlong">
<li>Before the lesson, have students write down the changes that occur in the
teen body and hand them in. Indicate that the next day's activity will focus
on the changes in the teen body and the healthy choices individuals can make
to support those changes.</li>
<li>Begin the lesson with an introduction to the general topic of the changes
in adolescent development by showing <a href="/static/resources/pdf/whats_happening/transparency_1.pdf" target="_blank">Transparency
1. General Information about Adolescence <em>(PDF)</em></a>. Discuss the items
on this list, emphasizing that this is GENERAL information and that individuals
vary a great deal and are still &quot;normal.&quot; </li>
<li>Indicate that teens have many lifestyle choices that affect their development. A possible metaphor: building a healthy body during adolescence is like building a house. The human body is partially developed before adolescence, but during adolescence the body is &quot;under construction.&quot; Stress the importance of quality materials/foods and lifestyle choices in building a healthy body that will last a long time.</li>
<li>You will now be working with students to fill out a grid on the blackboard.
(Refer to <a href="/static/resources/pdf/whats_happening/teacher_reference_1.pdf" target="_blank">Teacher
Reference. Body Grid <em>(PDF)</em></a>.) Tell the students they will be discussing
the lifestyle choices that they can make to positively affect their bodies
during this important time. Go over the information they wrote on the previous
day to compile a list that aligns with the topics BONES, MUSCLES, REPRODUCTIVE
SYSTEM, and BRAIN <em>(Note: Depending on the class, students may be reluctant
to bring up reproductive system changes, and you may need to fill in this
category yourself. Also, students probably will not include Brain Development
in their own lists. As you add this category and write down some specifics,
indicate that recent scientific research on the adolescent brain has revealed
interesting information about this topic.)</em></li>
<li>Across the top of the grid write: &quot;WHAT YOUR BODY NEEDS,&quot; and
&quot;HOW TO GET WHAT YOU NEED.&quot; Break the students into four groups
to research how to answer these two questions for each of the grid topics&#151;BONES,
MUSCLES, REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM, and BRAIN. Have students within each group break
into pairs to research the items already listed under each topic, and to come
up with new items. Let students know that after the initial research, each
pair will work with the larger topic group to make a class presentation.</li>
<li>Distribute <a href="/static/resources/pdf/whats_happening/handout_1.pdf" target="_blank">Handout
1. Worksheet for Team Research <em>(PDF)</em></a> to each pair to complete.
Explain that their research should include information about nutrition and
exercise. Distribute <a href="/static/resources/pdf/whats_happening/handout_2.pdf" target="_blank">Handout
2. Guidelines for Specific Adolescent Lifestyle Needs <em>(PDF)</em></a> as
a resource and other Internet resources. (See <a href="./resources/lesson_5_8.html#books">&quot;Books
and Web Sites&quot;</a> section below.) </li>
<li>When student research is complete, ask each topic group to develop a presentation
so that the grid on the board can be filled out for the class. <em>(Note:
The time needed for students to finish their research and develop their presentations
will vary depending on age, skills, availability of computers, etc.)</em>
</li>
</ol>
<h3 class="lesson">Lesson 2:</h3>
<ol class="lessonlong">
<li>Have one student from each topic group enter their information on the grid and discuss what they learned in their research on this topic. </li>
<li>When all the topics have been entered, discuss issues that arise from the grid. Discussion could address the different needs males and females have during adolescence, the effects the growth spurt has on adolescent lifestyle needs, and issues surrounding brain development. <a href="/static/resources/pdf/whats_happening/teacher_reference_2.pdf" target="_blank">Teacher Reference 2. Brain Research <em>(PDF)</em></a> could be used as a springboard for discussion. </li>
<li>Mention that there will be a visitor in the class during a follow-up lesson to discuss an aspect of adolescent health with them. </li>
</ol>
<h3 class="lesson">Lesson 3: </h3>
<ol class="lessonlong">
<li>Invite a school district nutritionist, personal trainer, coach, or physician with in-depth knowledge of adolescent health needs to facilitate a class discussion. Develop questions with the students prior to the visit, so that the focus is on the interests of the students. Make it clear to the invitee that you are looking for a dialogue rather than a lecture.</li>
<li>Introduce the guest and have her share information about her discipline and discuss careers in the field at all levels: professional, paraprofessional, etc. </li>
<li>Discuss the specific nutritional needs of vegetarians (if this meets the
needs/interests of the class).</li>
<li>Discuss the influences of peers, parents, the community, and the media on healthy and unhealthy choices. </li>
</ol>
<h3 class="lesson">Evaluation:</h3>
<p>Have students write three paragraphs covering what they learned from their own research, what they learned from the completed grid about the biology of adolescence and lifestyle needs, and what was significant to them about the dialogue that took place with the class visitor. Recommend specific questions for students to organize their thoughts.</p>

<h3 class="lesson">National Science Education Standards:</h3>
<ul class="lesson">
<li>Different kinds of questions suggest different kinds of scientific investigations. Some investigations involve observing and describing objects, organisms, or events; some involve collecting specimens; some involve experiments; some involve seeking more information; some involve discovery of new objects and phenomena; and some involve making models.</li>
<li>The human organism has systems for digestion, respiration, reproduction, circulation, excretion, movement, control, and coordination, and for protection from disease. These systems interact with one another.</li>
<li>Regular exercise is important to the maintenance and improvement of health. The benefits of physical fitness include maintaining healthy weight, having energy and strength for routine activities, good muscle tone, bone strength, strong heart/lung systems, and improved mental health. Personal exercise, especially developing cardiovascular endurance, is the foundation of physical fitness. </li>
<li>Food provides energy and nutrients for growth and development. Nutrition requirements vary with body weight, age, sex, activity, and body functioning.</li>
<li>Women and men of various social and ethnic backgrounds&#151;and with diverse interests, talents, qualities, and motivations&#151;engage in the activities of science, engineering, and related fields such as the health professions. Some scientists work in teams, and some work alone, but all communicate extensively with others.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="lesson">English Language Arts Standards:</h3>
<ul class="lesson">
<li>Students read a wide range of print and non-print texts to build an understanding of texts, of themselves, and of the cultures of the United States and the world; to acquire new information; to respond to the needs and demands of society and the workplace; and for personal fulfillment. Among these texts are fiction and nonfiction, classic and contemporary works.</li>
<li>Students adjust their use of spoken, written, and visual language (e.g., conventions, style, vocabulary) to communicate effectively with a variety of audiences and for different purposes.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="lesson"><img src="/static/img/lesson_extension.gif" width="655" height="23" alt="Possible Extension Activities" title="Possible Extension Activities" border="0" /></h2>
<ol class="lesson">
<li>Include an in-depth unit on nutrition, including an analysis of the 24-hour diet of an imaginary teen regarding calories, percentage of fat, and analysis of key nutrients.</li>
<li>Introduce 4 types of food pyramid: <a href="http://www.oldwayspt.org/" target="_blank">http://www.oldwayspt.org/</a> and select &quot;Traditional Diet Pyramids.&quot; Have students work in teams to choose and compare two types of pyramids.</li>
<li>Have students do research on the good and bad fats and have them write a list of snacks/foods with good fats. </li>
