Personal Health (K- 4)
* Safety and security are basic needs of humans.
* Individuals have some responsibility for their own health. Students
should engage in personal care - dental hygiene, cleanliness, and
exercise - that will maintain and improve health. *
Nutrition is essential to health. Students should understand how the
body uses food. Recommendations include eating a variety of foods,
eating less sugar, and eating less fat. * Different substances
can damage the body and how it functions. Such substances include
tobacco, alcohol, and illegal drugs. (NSES,
1996)
