The Project School Wellness Approach

The Project School Wellness approach to health is not your everyday health curriculum. We go beyond the old school physical health only approach to teaching health. We're not focused on getting every kid to run faster miles and memorize dietary guidelines (not that those are bad goals). Oh no, we've got our dreams set on something much bigger - empowering every student to thrive!

 

And at Project School Wellness we understand that thriving doesn't come from just being physically healthy!  You see, we wholeheartedly believe that health is multidimensional and that the dimensions are interconnected! This means that students must understand and learn how to strengthen and sustain each dimension of health (Not. Just. Physical. Health.).

 

I know it sounds like heavy stuff. But don't worry, we've got you covered! This curriculum comes with everything you need to establish a meaningful skills-based health education program (see above).

Skills-Based Health Creates a Lasting Impact on Well-Being

Our curriculum presents a skills-based approach and is scaffolded into three levels. Students begin this curriculum with an introduction to total health (Get this module for free!) and each of its dimensions. As they progress through each level, they are introduced to more complex and detailed elements of the dimensions of health.

 

This teaching framework helps empower students to build sustainable health and happiness by helping them master vital health skills and functional knowledge!

 

Curriculum Modules

The individual levels of the curriculum feature ten modules, each relating to specific dimensions of health and highlighting various health skills. Here's an overview of the included modules:

Flexible Teaching Options

Not only is the curriculum incredibly easy-to-teach, but it's also super flexible! It can be used in a number of ways, to fit any teacher's needs! Here are a few teaching options to consider:

 

  • An add-on to a physical education class by teaching health two or three days a month.

 

  • The sole curriculum for a middle school health course.

 

  • Curriculum for an Advisory program or in a Homeroom class.

 

  • School counselors can use it as part of a comprehensive school counseling program.

Buying Options

Along with flexible teaching options, there are a few options for purchasing. Every teacher is different and Project School Wellness' goal is to provide the perfect solution for you. Here are a couple of ways you can integrate this curriculum or elements of this curriculum into your classroom:

    Do you have any curriculum for high school health? Our middle school is highly considering your program and it would be GREAT to continue the scope and sequence.

      Hey Carrie,

      Thanks for connecting. Currently, I only have one unit for high school. You can check it out here. I am also in the process of testing out a high school sex ed unit on healthy decision making. It should be published in May/June.

      After I publish the second edition of the middle curriculum (you can preview it here), my plan is to focus on developing a high school curriculum (hopefully releasing in summer of 2020).

      If you’d like to chat more, please feel free to email me at [email protected]. I love to hear about your needs and what you’d like to see in a high school curriculum.

      Thanks and have a lovely day!

    Can students access information online themselves (example: they miss class and need the information that was introduced and discussed in class)?

    • Janelle Kay on August 8, 2019 at 10:07 pm

      Hey Sherry,

      Thanks for connecting! If you’d like for students to have online access I recommend downloading resources and uploading them to your Google Classroom.

      Thanks and have a great day,

      Janelle

      Hi there. I’ve been trying to access the full curriculum to purchase however the link doesn’t take me to an order page.
      Can you tell me how to order the health curriculum please?
      Thank you

      • Janelle Kay on August 27, 2019 at 9:01 pm

        Hey Sherry,

        Oh no! I’m sorry for the technical issues. I just updated the links. Or you can click here.

        Thanks!

    Janelle:

    Is there an opportunity to connect with you via video?

    Thank you.

    Hello can you tell me is your curriculum adaptable for Gr 9-12?

    Thanks for this greatness

    • Janelle Kay on March 1, 2022 at 12:54 pm

      Hello!

      Yes, it can be. It really depends on your students. I am in the early stages of designing a high school-specific health curriculum. That may be more applicable. Please email me directly at [email protected] if you have any other questions.

      Take care,
      Janelle

    Do you have any curriculum for high school health?

    • Janelle Kay on March 13, 2022 at 1:41 pm

      Hello Nick,

      Thanks for you connecting. I am currently in the early stages of developing a high school curriculum. At the moment there are two available units: Mental Illness Advocacy and Sexual Health. Feel free to email me ([email protected]) if you’d like more info on the high school curriculum.

      Take care,

      Janelle
