Lesson plan title: What are you Eating?
Concept/ Topic to teach: What children are eating and if they consider it healthy or not. Gives perspective to kids on what is healthy to eat and what is not according to the teacher and peers.
Standards addressed: Standard 3: The student knows how to use effective interpersonal communication skills that enhance health. (HE.B.3.2)
General Goal(s): To teach children about bad eating and good eating. If their favorite food is a good choice to eat on a regular basis or should be for a more rare occasion. I want the kids to realize that some foods may not be healthy enough for them to grow properly.
Specific Objectives: By the end of this exercise, I want the kids to realize that the food they normally like to eat is not usually healthy for them. I want their peers to be able to tell them if a certain food is healthy or not. By doing this, the children in the class get to communicate to each other their own thoughts on healthy eating.
Required Materials: Teacher, students, brains, and some knowledge of healthy food.
Anticipatory Set (Lead-In): Before the actual lesson, the teacher will give an overview of some healthy and some non-healthy food items. Ask them what they think some of these foods are and answer them right or wrong.
Step-By-Step Procedures (after previous step):
1. The teacher will stand in front of the class and tell her absolute favorite food.
2. He/she asks the class if it is a healthy food or not and if they should eat it often or rarely.
3. After the class answers back with the answer, he/she calls up a student to tell their favorite
food.
4. The class answers the same way as they did the teacher.
5. Each student will have a turn say their favorite food and the class answers the same every
time.
Plan for Independent Practice: For homework, each student will go home that night and record what they had for dinner. They will then write down each food item and whether it was healthy or not. Then discuss what they ate the next day in class.

Timed Writing-Campbell
Joseph Campbell theorized stories that have lasted throughout time follow the same fundamental structure. Campbell's journey will be analyzed and examined from two readings and shown how these two readings relate in its structure. Also, the structure is followed throughout everyday activities including doing homework.
Almost all great stories start with the hero's call to adventure. This is the adventure beginning with either a threat to peace, the hero falls or blunders into it, etc. For example, in the story “Indian Camp” by Ernest Hemingway, the call to adventure for the hero was that a woman in a small Indian village was having a baby and needed a doctor. The hero of the story is the father, the doctor, who came to help the woman with his son and brother. One could also argue that the son, Nick, is also a hero in this story by the new adventure he sees of childbirth and life. Another example of the call to adventure would be in “Hills Like White Elephants,” also by Ernest Hemingway. I believe the woman in this story is the hero. Her call to adventure would be her figuring out she is pregnant. This is an example of a blunder, she was not prepared for a baby but now is pregnant. The call to adventure is the beginning mark in a hero's journey. It is part of the departure section in Campbell's “The Hero with A Thousand Faces.”
The next main step in the hero's journey in his/her initiation step. This phase of the journey would include the road of trials, meeting with the goddess, etc. I believe the road of trials to be the most important part of this section. For example, the doctor in the Indian camp must overcome the trials of the difficulty of the labor, the husband killing himself, and protecting his son from the truth of the world. Also, for the man and the woman in the other story, the trials of discussing the options they have for the baby while drinking every type of beer in Barcelona. This step in the most important in the whole story because if there is no road of trials then there is no story.
The last section of Campbell is the return section. In most stories, the hero has a refusal of the return and the freedom to live. For the doctor in the Indian camp, he refused to return to the idea that his son was now aware of more of the world and its difficulties. The man and the woman on the train in Barcelona refused to go back to their normal lives without a baby. In the refusal of return, the hero eventually returns home with more knowledge of the world.
In my project three homework, I went through these phases. My refusal of the call is my lack of ability to actually start my homework. The next step is the trials of finishing the homework with a limited amount of time. Finally, my return home is the completed homework ready to turn in with full credit.
In conclusion, Joseph Campbell has theorized most stories into this same structure. As shown, Ernest Hemingway has followed this same structure. In result, his stories have lasted throughout time and will continue to last.
