MY BODY, MY MIND LESSON PLANS
& RESOURCE PACKAGE

In 2010-11, the community of Prince Albert formed a committee with funds accessed through the Sask Smart Innovations Fund - Ministry of Education to work on a Community Literacy Plan. Among the developments coming out of the plan was a curriculum designed to make the connection between Health and Learning. Included in the package are the following elements:

1. Lesson Plans appropriate for Division 1, 2 or 3 levels Titled "My Body, My Mind", exploring the connection between Health and Learning. This resource would be appropriate for use in Health, Phys Ed, or could be adapted to any stream - useful during Nutrition Month. There are options for family participation and feedback. Download these files below.

| Div 1 Levels |    | Div 2 Levels |     | Div 3 Levels |

2. Winning Poster Compilation
The community hosted a poster competition for schools to introduce the lesson plans. There were winners in each of the 3 Division categories. The criteria stated that students would illustrate how they made the connection between Health and Learning (as per the lesson plans). The top winner in each division category received a prize and special recognigion at a community celebration. The winning posters were compiled and can be printed (8.5 x 17 paper) and posted or used as a resource with your lesson plans. Click here to download

3. My Body, My Mind Poster - Color or Black & White option
There are 4 simple, but profound talking points that comprise the focus of the lesson plans - these are illustrated in this poster and can be printed to post or use with the lesson plans.
