9.+Unit+Assessment+Plan

= Formative Assessments =
 * === Nutrition ===
 * Students will be given a blank food pyramid and be asked to label the different areas and give examples for each. They will be asked to explain the significance of the size of each food group's space on the food pyramid.
 * === Exercise and Well Being ===
 * Students will be tested on their flexibility along with comparing their journal entries from the beginning of the unit to the end to see if and how their views changed about exercising and health choices.
 * === Day of Respect ===
 * Students will be given a sheet of construction paper and they will fold it into four sections. Each quadrant will represent one different topic covered during the lesson: things I like about myself, things I can do to get along with my friends, things I can do to calm down when I am upset, and ways I will communicate in a positive way. Students will be instructed to draw a picture or write a sentence in each quadrant.
 * === Student Safety ===
 * Students will put fire safety procedure steps in order. They will all help come up with a fire escape route.
 * Students will match the parts of a first aid kit with their function/purpose.
 * Students will actively participate in a "What should you do?" stranger danger activity. They will be given a situation and four choices. The students will write their choice letter down.
 * === Field Day ===
 * To keep this a fun day, at take the emphasis off winning, you might opt not to award special badges, ribbons, or trophies to winning students. Instead, winners simply might be recognized by standing in place as their names are called.

= Summative Assessment =

Students will be given a list of foods and be asked to place them in the correct food group on the pyramid. Students will then be asked to perform at least 2 stretches or exercises that they learned during the week. Students will be divided into groups and will be given either a safety scenario or a problem solving scenario and be asked to come to a solution by acting the scenario out in front of the class. Finally, students will have an opportunity, if they finished all their work throughout the week, to participate in the class field day as a reward for their hard work.
