This student resource focuses on 10 life skills that students need to become health literate, maintain and improve health, prevent disease and reduce health-related risk behaviours. Each of the seven chapters opens with questions developed to tap prior knowledge, clearly highlights the objectives, utilizes appealing visuals and graphics, offers activities and provides chapter reviews. The resource complements the Grade 4 curriculum in the areas of healthy eating, physical activity, conflict management, safety, relationships, stress management, decision making and designing and applying action plans. Some of the suggested activities link to other areas of study. Included are a table of contents, a glossary and an index.--Ministry of Education website.
