Everything you need to run the course.
A course pack is more than a syllabus — it's the full kit of artifacts a guide, parent, or micro-school operator uses to teach Health & Nutrition well. Print the checklists, lean on the rubrics to keep the bar consistent, and never let a student start an investigation without running the readiness list first.
For the student
Retrieval, spaced practice, and the non-negotiable habit of working problems by hand — not rereading worked examples.
A one-page planner that schedules retrieval and daily problem sets around the two-day Concept Day / Investigation Day rhythm.
A clean workspace, food-safe handling, and measurement tools at the ready — the safety, setup, and readiness list every student runs before an Investigation Day.
How to structure a health & nutrition entry — data tables with units and significant figures, calculations, and error analysis. The artifact students defend all year.
For the guide & parent
A plain-language walkthrough for students and parents: the rhythm, the three demonstrations, and how mastery works.
Running more than one cohort: pacing, shared investigation days, food-test prep, and keeping nutrition-analysis defenses manageable.
Food scales, heart-rate monitors, food-test reagents, and nutrition datasets — what to buy and roughly what it costs.
Every print-ready packet in binder order — print the whole pack for a three-ring binder.
Reference
The vocabulary, symbols, and units that unlock the whole course — from calorie to macronutrient to correlation vs. causation.
The wrong ideas students arrive with — about calories, “detox” cleanses, and correlation vs. causation — and how to dislodge each one.
Where the reading lives: OpenStax Health & Nutrition, CK-12, and books worth owning. The text sits underneath the bench.
The method, made operable
Mastery, not points: the three levels, why "not yet" recovers, and how it becomes a grade.
Mastery and integration tell a student they can and where it connects. Wonder tells them why they'd bother.
A loop, not a line: falsification, the "No" branch, and recording what you measure — why a real lab is the point.
One per unit, plus the three demonstration rubrics. The shared bar for "mastered."
Encouraged vs. off-limits, plus a curated prompt library for studying health & nutrition with AI honestly.
The cross-domain playbook, connecting nutrients, energy balance, and evidence-based reasoning into one worked example.
