Carrollton Elementary – Health Education 4 Alt

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Health Education for intermediate students focuses on how they can assume more responsibility for their health, develop positive health behaviors, and prevent negative, unhealthy behaviors. In grade four students learn to practice safe behaviors, identify hazards and actions to remove those hazards from their surroundings, respond to emergencies and develop conflict resolution skills; identify effects of drugs on the body, understand influences that promote drug use, and develop the skills needed to resist those influences. This course is designed to facilitate alternate academic learning outcomes appropriate to the instructional needs of the student, as documented in the Individualized Education Program (IEP). This course is linked to the general education curriculum; however, the student will require a different scope and sequence, adapted and modified materials.
