Three Elements of Health

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

High schoolers identify and discuss three important elements of health: physical, social, and mental health. They go into detail about each and spend a lot of time discussing the dangers of smoking, drinking alcohol, and eating a fat-filled, junk-food diet. Very important information is passed along in this lesson.
