INTASC STANDARD & RATIONALE
• STANDARD: #7 PLANNING FOR INSTRUCTION
• THE TEACHER PLANS INSTRUCTION THAT SUPPORTS EVERY STUDENT IN MEETING RIGOROUS LEARNING GOALS BY DRAWING UPON
KNOWLEDGE OF CONTENT AREAS, CURRICULUM, CROSS-DISCIPLINARY SKILLS, AND PEDAGOGY, AS WELL AS KNOWLEDGE OF
LEARNERS AND THE COMMUNITY CONTENT.
• NAME OF ARTIFACT: HEALTH EDUCATION LESSON PLAN
• DATE: APRIL 15, 2014
• COURSE: EDUC 240
• BRIEF DESCRIPTION: FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT, I DEVELOPED A HEALTH EDUCATION LESSON PLAN THAT DOCUMENTS THE STEPS I
WILL UTILIZE AS AN EDUCATOR WHEN TEACHING HEALTH EDUCATION TO MY STUDENTS. IN THIS LESSON PLAN, I INCLUDE
NATIONAL AND STATE STANDARDS, GOALS/OBJECTIVES, MATERIALS NEEDED AND METHOD OF INSTRUCTION. WITHIN THE METHOD
OF INSTRUCTION, I DETAIL HOW THE LESSON WILL BE INTRODUCED, DEMONSTRATED, PRACTICED AND ASSESSED.
• RATIONALE: TO DOCUMENT MY UNDERSTANDING OF STANDARD #7, PLANNING FOR INSTRUCTION, I SELECTED TO INCLUDE MY
HEALTH EDUCATION LESSON PLAN BECAUSE THIS ASSIGNMENT DEMONSTRATES BY ABILITY TO PLAN A LESSON FOR MY STUDENTS.
THIS LESSON PLAN ALSO REQUIRES ME TO ADDRESS DIFFERENT STUDENT’S ABILITIES, WHILE KEEPING THE CLASS ON TRACK. MY
KNOWLEDGE OF THE CURRICULUM AND CONTENT AREAS ARE DEMONSTRATED IN THIS LESSON PLANNING, AS WELL.

"You Better Wash Your Hands"
LESSON ACTIVITY
HAND WASHING IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN PREVENTING THE
SPREAD OF DISEASE, BUT IF HANDS AREN’T WASHED PROPERLY YOU
CAN STILL PASS GERMS TO OTHERS.
EXPLAIN THAT GLO-GERM LOTION CONTAINS TINY PIECES OF
PLASTIC THAT GLOW UNDER UV LIGHT. TODAY WE’RE PRETENDING
THAT THESE TINY PARTICLES IN THE LOTION ARE BACTERIA OR
“GERMS”. BACTERIA ARE SINGLE-CELLED ORGANISMS TOO SMALL TO
BE SEEN WITHOUT A MICROSCOPE. BACTERIA ARE ALL AROUND US.
EXPLAIN WE ARE GOING TO SEE HOW QUICKLY BAD BACTERIA CAN SPREAD.
ASK STUDENTS TO CLOSE THEIR EYES. PLACE A NICKEL-SIZED BLOB OF GLOWGERM LOTION ONTO THE RIGHT PALM OF THREE STUDENTS AND ASK THEM TO
RUB THE LOTION INTO BOTH HANDS. TELL THE CLASS THAT WHEN THE TIMER
BEGINS THEY ARE TO OPEN THEIR EYES, MOVE AROUND THE ROOM, AND SHAKE
HANDS WITH AS MANY DIFFERENT PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE. AFTER ONE MINUTE,
HAVE STUDENTS GATHER AROUND THE UV LIGHTS AND VIEW THEIR ‘GERMS’.
MODEL PROPER HAND WASHING TECHNIQUE. SPLIT THE CLASS IN TO TWO
GROUPS. HAVE ONE GROUP WASH THEIR HANDS WITH SOAP AND WATER, AND
THE OTHER GROUP WITH WATER ONLY. RETURN TO UV LIGHTS AND VIEW
RESULTS. DID YOU GET ALL THE GERMS OFF?
