Lesson Summary:
This Lesson is design to make Health, Nutrition, and Fitness fun for child. With the help of a Leap band by
Leap Frog to fitness fun for children in it all so help track their movements. It also helps with healthy habits
with a customizable pet. Student will be about to pick the own band and table track the Health, Nutrition, and
Fitness habit they start. Their best habits will be placed where everyone can see it. We will have a (K, W, and
L) chart so we can see what they know, what they want to know, and what they learn.

Commentary:
To start the Lesson talks to the children about Health, Nutrition, and Fitness. Talk the activity that they will be
doing this week. Tell them why you feel that learning about Health, Nutrition, and Fitness is so impotent. Ask
them what they think will make learning about Health, Nutrition, and Fitness fun to them. Show them the tool
they will use on this Lesson. It will be challenging to keep 4 to5 years old in to the lesson but I think having
their own leap band and table will help.

Differentiated Instructional Support

Describe how instruction can be differentiated (changed or altered) to meet the needs of gifted or
accelerated students:
If the teacher has a gifted student in the class have them to peer-tutor students who are struggling. Let them
work together. Let them chance each other.
Discuss additional activities you could do to meet the needs of students who might be struggling with the
material:
If the teacher has a student that is struggling with the material the can make a step by step work a long video
