Guidelines are offered for developing a curriculum in health education for grades one through eight. Learning activities are outlined in the areas of personal health, family health, nutrition, mental-emotional health, and community health. The guide lists Topics/Concepts, Learning Outcomes/Objectives, and Sample Learning Activities in three columns. "Topics/Concepts" describe the major parts of the subject under consideration. They define broadly the content to be included in the study of each subject area. "Learning Outcomes/Objectives" describe, in general terms, the behaviors which students are expected to demonstrate as a result of their learning experiences. "Sample Learning Activities" are indicators of student progress toward the stated goals, i.e., the learning outcomes. (JD)
