1 EXERCISING

Our Goals: Calculate percentages of a total Given a percentage of a total, calculate the corresponding value

Discuss in your group

Do you exercise? How often? Which activities do you do? If I ate a brownie (132 calories) and I want to burn 75% of its calories, how many calories should I burn? Loren wants to be healthy and decides to work out. During an 50 minute interval, she runs for 41 minutes. What percentage of the time did she run?

Why Exercise? 1. Boost your happiness 2. Learn to set and achieve goals 3. Reduce your risk of heart disease 4. Sleep better 5. Get an energy boost 6. Increase strength and flexibility 7. Improve memory 8. Increase self-confidence 9. Perform better at school 10. Become resistant to disease 11. Live longer

BURNING CALORIES

Children age 6 or older need at least 1 hour of exercise a week. Exercise is good because: - Makes strong muscles and bones - Decreases the risk of developing diabetes - Lowers blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels - Makes you feel more optimistic about life - Helps burning calories and keep the body lean

a Fill the last column of the table shown. Which activity makes you burn the most calories (per minute)?

b Suppose that you spend 2 hours like this: 20% playing video games, 30% dancing and the rest of the time walking. How many calories will you burn?

2 SUGARY DRINKS

Our Goals: Practice conversions using ratios, and compare different ratios Use ratios and proportionality to generate new information

Discuss in your group

Which things you notice when you drink too much of a sugary drink?

If a drink has 10g of sugar in a 16 oz cup, how many grams of sugar does it have in a 12 oz cup?

Which has a smaller concentration of sugar: a 12 oz cup with 18g of sugar, or a 8 oz cup with 14g of sugar?

2 SUGARY DRINKS

According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the maximum amount of added sugars you should eat in a day are (7): Men: 150 calories per day (37.5 grams or 9 teaspoons). Women: 100 calories per day (25 grams or 6 teaspoons).

Sugar is bad for you a because it has calories, and because if you have diabetes or a diabetes-related condition -- like high blood fat levels -- then having sugar will increase your blood sugar and your triglycerides, a risk factor for heart disease. (Triglycerides are a type of fat in the blood.)

When we look at the types of foods that are high in added sugar, they often are not high in nutrition. So eating a lot of sugar is a general indication that maybe you aren't eating as healthy of a diet as you could.

Sugar does one of two things. It either displaces more nutritious foods in your diet, which means you're screening out nutritious-dense foods, or it adds calories to your diet. So if you're adding calories on top of an already nutritious diet that puts you at risk for weight gain.
