Going beyond the standards and performance indicators themselves, National Health Education Standards, Third Edition, offers detailed guidance on how to effectively implement them. It leads preservice teachers and current practitioners in planning curricula, building lesson plans around the standards, and creating meaningful assessments. This latest edition features the revised standards, which reflect the following key shifts:
Incorporating developmentally appropriate progressions of performance indicators for each standard across the grade spans
Incorporating asset-based language (i.e., words, phrases, and concepts that focus on the strengths and potential of students)
Emphasizing not only individual behavior change but also broader structures, including families, communities, and laws and policies that affect health and well-being
Incorporating themes related to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion
