This curriculum guide is based on the Louisiana State Minimum Competencies for Health Education. This guide consists of extensive outlines of major content areas in health education with recommended activities to facilitate learning at specified levels. The content areas are: (1) communicable and noncommunicable disease; (2) consumer health; (3) environmental and community health; (4) family living; (5) nutrition; (6) mental and emotional health; (7) personal health; (8) safety and first aid; and (9) substance use and abuse. The guide has been developed for the kindergarten through tenth grades at four competency levels: Level I, kindergarten through third grades; Level II, fourth through sixth grades; Level III, seventh and eighth grades; and Level IV, ninth and tenth grades. With each content area, a course outline, topics, student objectives, and activities to achieve student objectives are provided. Following each section is a bibliography of reading materials for educators and print and nonprint resources for further information on the topic. (JD)
