Reflection 1. Who are partners in sharing and supporting the CHECS? 2.Could any information learned in the first section serve as tools to inform administration about nutrition education? (Importance to student health and as an academic subject.)

What are Skills and How are they Learned? Eating my homework did that to him, as they say, you are what you eat. By George B. Abbott

How are skills learned? How are skills learned? Just because we know does not mean they know! Just because we know how does not mean they know how! We must teach knowledge and skills!

Steps for Effective Skill-Based Instruction 1. Present the importance of the skill, and present the steps to complete the skill. 2. Model the Skill. 3. Guided Practice. 4. Independent Practice. 5. Apply, Feedback, and Reinforcement.

How are skills learned? How are skills learned? What does this have to do with developing a healthy active lifestyle? Knowledge + Skill + Practice + Reinforcement = Success
