In this benchmark
assignment, you will be planning a Wellness Fair for the students and families
of your kindergarten class. The Wellness Fair will incorporate the mini-lesson
plans you previously created in this course. You will also create a digital
invitation to the Wellness Fair.
Part 1: Mini-Lessons
Rationale
In preparation for the
Wellness Fair, review the health, nutrition, safety, and fitness mini-lessons
you designed throughout the course.
In 250-500 words, write
a rationale explaining your instructional decisions for each wellness lesson.
Make sure to include how those decisions directly support the characteristics
and needs of the “Class Profile” students.
Part 2: Wellness Fair
Event Plan
Health, safety,
nutrition, and fitness are topics you have been teaching to your kindergarten
students through your mini-lessons; however, it is also beneficial to educate
the families on the same topics. Therefore, your goal in this section is to
design a wellness fair to educate the families on these topics so they can
support their children at home more successfully.
In order for the fair to
be effective, you will need community support to assist in providing
educational booths in the areas of health, nutrition, safety, and fitness. For
this part of the assignment, you will create a 1,000-1,250 word plan outlining
the wellness fair for your students’ families, including how you will involve
the community.
Include the following in
your plan:
- Agenda:
Outline the timing for each activity during the event in a simple agenda
format.
- Welcome:
Briefly describe how you will introduce the event to all participants.
- Opening
Activity: Plan an opening activity for the families and children that will
explain the purpose of the wellness event with the community and promote
shared values and expectations in creating a healthy, respectful, and
challenging learning environment.
- Community
Resource Booths: Outline four community resource booths that will provide
information on health, safety, nutrition, and fitness (one booth per
topic). Include a community resource you will invite to represent the
topic, 3-4 interesting and important statistics relating to the booth’s
topic and young children, and a 50-100 word description of why that topic
is important to the development of young children. Briefly describe how
each booth will address the needs of children in the class both with and
without exceptionalities, based on the “Class Profile.”
- Closing
Activity: Plan a closing activity for the families and children that
employs strategies and opportunities to ensure future collaboration with
families while pursuing the well-being of students in the areas of health,
nutrition, safety, and fitness.
- Rationale:
Write a 250-500 word rationale explaining how the Wellness Fair supports
collaboration between faculty, students, families, and the larger
community. In addition, discuss why this collaboration is vital to
promoting children’s development and learning, including children with
exceptionalities.
Support your plan with
2-3 scholarly resources.
Part 3: Digital Wellness
Fair Invitation
Create a digital
invitation to promote the Wellness Fair to families, colleagues, and the
community as well as share information about the growth of young children in
the areas of health, safety, nutrition, and fitness. The invitation
should be concise, visually appealing for the audience, encourage participation
and collaboration, and include 2-3 resources that support the content.
