Health in Grade 5 teaches students how to take care of their bodies and minds. At this stage, learners focus on nutrition, hygiene, exercise, and emotional well-being. They also discuss how choices affect long-term health and why prevention is important. Assignments include analyzing healthy habits, creating fitness plans, and reflecting on how stress or rest influences daily life. By practicing these skills, children learn responsibility for their own well-being and respect for others. These activities are divided into starter, practice, and challenge levels, guiding Grade 5 learners toward stronger health awareness and habits that will support them for life.
