Students were also able to witness the effects that poor health has on the heart by developing clogged arteries using water, straws, and Crisco oil. During a meeting in October, we focused on testing our taste buds, learning about carbohydrates and proteins, trying healthy food options, experimenting with portion sizes, and examining a human body energy simulation. To get the students moving, during every meeting we played an active game such as ultimate frisbee and tag.<\/p>\n<p>This fall we had two guest speakers: Dr. Mark Cucuzella and Dr. Josh Miller. Dr. Mark Cucuzzella, a local family doctor, marathon runner and owner of a minimalist footwear store, provided our students with a running clinic and lesson on simple nutrition prior to the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.freedomsrun.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Freedom\u2019s Run<\/a>. Our second guest speaker, a local physical therapist, Dr. Josh Miller, administered one of the three rounds of physical fitness tests based on five activities. Students\u2019 results were documented and will be used to compare their improvement in January and May.<\/p>\n<p>Another addition to LIA this year has been our monthly weekend programs. Students visited the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flocoutdoors.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Outdoor Education Center<\/a>\u00a0(OEC) in October to focus on the basics of gardening. While learning about our new 4-season greenhouse and grow lab,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/forloveofchildren.wordpress.com\/2013\/10\/08\/leaders-in-action-students-garden-at-the-oec\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">students planted vegetables<\/a>\u00a0and made their own biodegradable starter pots.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4411\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4411\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4411\" src=\"https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_2493-edited-300x212.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_2493-edited-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_2493-edited-768x542.jpg 768w, https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_2493-edited-1024x723.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/floc.org\/flocold2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_2493-edited.jpg 1656w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4411\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Students play \u201cPin the Bone on the Body\u201d while learning about human anatomy.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>To celebrate the fall season, students celebrated with a \u201cLeaders In Action Fall Party\u201d based on anatomy. Students learned about the human body by playing \u201cSimon Says- Muscle Edition\u201d and \u201cPin the Bone on the Body.\u201d Students also learned about organs and other body parts by blindly guessing which food represented the correct body part. Our next unit will be social wellness. As the year progresses, students will continue to participate in activities to learn more about the seven dimensions of health.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Sarah Nowicki is an AmeriCorps Vista at FLOC\u2019s Outdoor Education Center).<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Leaders In Action\u00a0(LIA) students from West Virginia recently completed their first lesson from the curriculum on the seven dimensions of health.
