HEALTHY SCHOOLS CAMPAIGN

Our school runs an annual ‘healthy school’ campaign to teach students basic health care. It’s a really
important part of education because a healthy body means a healthy mind. Here are some of the things we
learn:

Answers: P1_ paragraph 3. P2_paragraph 1._ P3_paragraph 2._ P4_paragraph 4._

II. WRITING

3. Read this text. Which topic sentence is it about?

In my opinion, it’s really important for __X_1. Schools shouldn’t teach students how to be healthy. They
schools to teach students about being should learn that from their parents.
healthy. Some students learn to wash their
hands and clean their teeth from their __2. People are happy when they are healthy. True or false?
parents. However, some students don’t know
why they should wash their hands and clean ___3. Parents shouldn’t be allowed to give their children fizzy
their teeth. So I think it’s incredibly useful for drinks and sugary snacks. What do you think?
all students to learn about hygiene. These
days, diet is an extremely big problem. Many
families have bad diets and some students
don’t know that they should eat a more
balanced diet. A lot of people are very lazy
and stay at home and watch TV. Not many
people are active and do sport. So it’s
important for schools to encourage students
to be more active and to spend time outside.
I think school is a place to learn about
everything, including health.

4. Taking into account all the information from this exercise, let’s make a campaign. Suppose that you have a penfriend, and
you want to advice about healthcare. Follow this structure:

 Greetings. Salute your penfriend, expecting everything is well.

 Proposal. Explain the proposal of your e-mail. Include everything about hygiene, healthy food, and so on.
 Conclusion. Persuade your penfriend to follow a healthy lifestyle. Say goodbye, wish the best to him/her. Sign the
message.

Don’t forget to use the vocabulary and grammar forms we have seen during this third term.

Hello Andrea I hope you are very well, I send this email because I am really worried about your health. I am worried that your
mother has informed me that you are gaining weight. I take the thrill of doing some exercises like exercising, eating healthy,
and seeing a nutritionist to help you. I hope to see you soon, we hardly ever go out and remember you are beautiful but you
are even more beautiful healthy. Luisa loves you.
