Let's review!

In this unit you looked at the physical and emotional factors behind eating habits, evaluated dietary choices and diet trends, and used your power as a consumer; explored factors that enhance mental, emotional and spiritual well-being, conflict within yourself and with others, and health and safety risks; learned the effects of substance use and addictive behaviours, the skills to respond, and how addictions are public issues; and examined sexual decision making, exclusive relationships, and misconceptions about sexuality.

This review has a few questions from every lesson. Try each one, then press Show answer. If a part feels tricky, go back to that lesson.

For parents and teachers

Big idea: this review covers all twelve Healthy Living expectations of PPL2O (C1.1, C1.2, C2.1 to C2.5, C3.1 to C3.5) and the Living Skills (1.1 to 1.5).

Which lesson to revisit:

  • Mixing up physical and emotional hunger, or unsure about hunger cues → lesson 1 (eating habits).
  • Trusting diet claims from influencers, or unsure about vegetarian or vegan planning → lesson 2 (dietary choices and trends).
  • Unsure how students can change food choices at school → lesson 3 (consumer impact).
  • Confusing mental health with mental illness, or unsure what spiritual well-being means → lesson 4.
  • Unsure which conflict style or strategy fits, or treating control as "conflict" → lesson 5.
  • Mixing up hazard and risk, or forgetting safety practices → lesson 6.
  • Unsure about substance effects, standard drinks or the 4 Cs → lesson 7.
  • Unsure what to say under pressure or what to do in an emergency → lesson 8.
  • Unable to connect local, national and international impacts → lesson 9.
  • Believing "everyone is doing it" or unsure about influences on sexual decisions → lesson 10.
  • Unsure about balance and warning signs in dating relationships → lesson 11.
  • Unsure how to respond fairly to myths and stereotypes → lesson 12.

Sensitive content: lessons 4, 5 and 7 to 12 deal with sensitive topics; lessons 10 to 12 are part of the human development and sexual health expectations. Families can talk to the school about its policy and options.
