Studying health can seem so basic, yet there are always things fun and new to learn in order to live as your best self, and honor God as you do it. This class will be engaging and entertaining as we seek healthy spiritual, physical, mental, and social aspects of our lives.
This health course is designed to provide students with an understanding of important health issues and to help them make wise choices. This course will satisfy the requirement for a high school health credit.
Total Health encompasses all facets of health (spiritual, physical, mental, and social) written from a Christian perspective. Content is on the conservative side. Little space is wasted on drug abuse or reproduction; the book tends to accentuate the positives, such as health, fitness, and nutrition. Medical discussions take a down-the-middle approach. Dating is considered acceptable, although group dating is encouraged. Above all, our relationship with God is given high priority, making this a “healthy” alternative to some secular counterparts.
The student text is softcover and includes the reading material, as well as end-of-chapter questions, explanation questions, discussion questions and suggested activities.
