Lesson Summary
In this lesson, students will begin their fitness journey, visualising changes that occur inside and outside the body when healthy habits are adopted and targeting the health and fitness of themselves and others through physical testing and media messaging.
The health and fitness-related tasks undertaken throughout the Volkswagen Footy Fit Challenge lessons are gamified, providing incentivised learning opportunities and allowing for some personalisation.
