technology).

Prior to this activity we already went through the first lesson on

eating & exercise via zoom meeting. This was an introduction
into the chapter where I had the power point on the screen and
taught while students followed along, and students got the basic
information on eating and exercise.

The next lesson is when the assignment comes into play

students should take the information from the first lesson and
apply it to the simulation. When the students finish the
simulation, they should have a better understanding what
variables affect the body.

In this assignment students will be able to change the weight

and height of a person in order to determine the BMI. Other
variables will affect the person as well, students are allowed to
give the person different food option ranging from fast food to
fruit. Students will also have the chance to determine how
active they want their person to be. These variables not only
affect the person BMI but also affects their heart health

Following the assignment, I will assess my students on the

 information they learned and applied. I will assess by giving the
students a short quiz making sure they know what goes into
living a healthy lifestyle.
