3. Unlocking Difficulties
The teacher will present three vocabulary words or content specific terms to the
students and help them unlock the words using context clues. The students will
choose their answer from the given choices.
Orange juice is Lisa’s favorite thirst-quencher. She always drinks it whenever
she wants something to drink. Her mother buys the drink every time she goes to the
market. When she drinks the juice, Lisa becomes energetic and active. It is because the
drink contains nutrients that provide many benefits. But, mother does not allow her to
drink it every day because it also contains lots of calories. Though it gives energy, too
much of it will result to weight gain and having an unbalanced diet.

body makes your life longer, gives you energy and keeps you from

avoid junk food and going to dirty places.)
B. During the Lesson
1. Presentation
The teacher will give an informative text that the students will read. After
reading, the students will answer the questions of the teacher.
Being fit is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical activity exercise, and has a healthy weight.
If you're fit, your body works well, feels good, and can do all the things you want to do, like run around with your
friends.
Here are five rules to live by, if you're a kid who wants to be fit. The trick is to follow these rules most of the
time, knowing that some days (like your birthday) might call for cake and ice cream.
Eat a Variety of Food
You may have a favorite food, but the best choice is to eat a variety. If you eat different food, you're more likely
to get the nutrients your body needs. Taste new food and old ones you haven't tried for awhile. Some food, such as
green veggies, is more pleasing the older you get. Have at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day – two
fruits and three vegetables.
Drink Water and Milk
When you're really thirsty, cold water is the best thirst-quencher. And there's a reason your school cafeteria
offers cartons of milk. Kids need calcium to build strong bones, and milk is a great source of this mineral. How
much do kids need? If you are younger than 9 years old, drink 2 cups of milk a day, or its equivalent. If you're older
than 9 years old, aim for 3 cups of milk per day, or its equivalent. You can mix it up by having milk and some other
calcium-rich dairy foods.
You probably will want something other than milk or water once in a while, so it's OK to have 100% juice, too.
But try to limit sugary drinks, like sodas, juice cocktails, and fruit punches. They contain a lot of sugar. Sugar just
adds calories, not important nutrients.
Listen to Your Body
What does it feel like to be full? When you're eating, notice how your body feels and when your stomach feels
comfortably full. Sometimes, people eat too much because they don't notice when they need to stop eating. Eating
too much can make you feel uncomfortable and, over a period of time, can lead to unhealthy weight gain.
Limit Screen Time
What's screen time? It's the amount of time you spend watching TV or DVDs, playing video games (console
systems or handheld games), and using the computer. The more time you spend on these sitting-down activities, the
less time available for physical activities such as
basketball, bike riding, and swimming. Try to spend no more than 2 hours a day on screen time, not counting
computer use related to school.
Be Active
One job you have as a kid – and it's a fun one – is that you get to figure out which activities you like best. Not
everyone loves baseball or soccer. Maybe your passion is karate, or kick ball, or dancing. Ask your parents to help
you do your favorite activities regularly. Find ways to be active every day. You might even write down a list of fun
stuff to do, so you can refer to it when your mom or dad says it's time to stop watching TV or playing computer
games.
Parents are a big help of you want to be a fit kid. For instance, they can stock the house with healthy foods and
plan physical activities for the family. Tell your parents about these five steps you want to take and maybe you can
teach them a thing or two. If you're a fit kid, why shouldn't you have a fit mom and a fit dad?
