Hello and thank you for taking the time to access our wonderful health education learning materials!

Our nonprofit Kleist Health Education Center provides a stimulating setting for students, teachers, and Southwest Florida community members to learn about making healthy choices. Part of the Marieb College of Health & Human Services, our health education programs are interactive, animated and full of vital information. All our programs are aligned to meet Florida's Common Core State Standards, assisting administrators and educators with school curriculum.

The KHEC’s online ‘easy access learning environment’ was created to assist teachers, parents, students, and other community partners with access to valuable health lessons during these challenging COVID-19 times.

Our web-based lessons are relevant and are focused on 4 key areas: character education, fitness, nutrition, and general health. We hope these learning lessons will meet your needs and support our teachers, students, and parents.

This Virtual Workbook was created to supplement the 8 learning lessons available on our website: https://www.fgcu.edu/mariebcollege/khec/. This workbook has been designed to continue the learning process of health information in a safe environment, either at home or when school is back in session. Each topic area contains 2 lesson activities. The short virtual lessons and accompanying workbook can supplement your existing curriculum or be a tool to start your ‘at home discussions’ with your children.

Please feel free to download the entire workbook or just the specific learning activities that you would like to use.

Please call us at: 239-590-7459 to make a reservation (after COVID-19 stay at home order is lifted) and see more of our health education programs!

Sincerely, The KHEC Staff

Social Responsibility: Just a Walk in the Park?

Read the scenarios and consider what appropriate responses may be considering personal and social responsibility. Many of the actions that we do and do not take, can drastically affect other people.

How can your ripple effect be a positive one?

1. You and your best friend are walking in the local park. Your friend offers you half of a granola bar. You accept. When your friend removes their half from the wrapper, they throw the wrapper on the ground and continue walking. What would you do? How could your friend’s action affect others? How could your decision affect others? ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ 2. When you and your friend continue your walk through the park, you come across some other students from your grade at school laughing and pushing around a smaller student. The smaller student looks upset and is telling the older students to leave them alone. Your friend says, “Ugh… I hate those guys, let’s go back this way before they see us…” What would you do? How could your friend’s action affect others? How could your decision affect others? ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ 3. Later that night, as you scroll through your favorite social media app, you see a video that someone posted of the younger/smaller student being pushed around by the older/bigger students with the caption, “Look at this loser CRYING… what a baby!” You see that a few of your friends shared the video seemed to think it was very funny. What would you do? How could your friends’ actions affect others? How could your decision affect others? ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________
