Picture books selected by current teachers
Make unfamiliar and difficult health education easy and fun!

For teachers, it is a constant challenge to think about how to prepare lessons in a way that will make them more enjoyable for students.
In particular, health classes often deal with somewhat unfamiliar and difficult topics, forcing teachers to devote themselves to researching more effective teaching methods.
"Picture Book Health Classes in One Book," a new health education program utilizing picture books, will be a welcome addition to teachers who are feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of preparing health classes.

This book was compiled by health teachers with extensive teaching experience, selecting 39 picture books to enable 17 health classes to be taught using picture books that fit the theme.
It covers almost every topic covered in elementary health classes, from healthy lifestyle habits to disease prevention, drug abuse prevention, sex education, gender equality, and a safe media environment.
Picture books with heartwarming stories allow for a lighthearted approach to heavy topics, and deliver messages that are difficult to express in words in a fun way, making them easy for even teachers teaching health classes for the first time.

Through diverse and unique linkage activities
A teaching method that encourages self-questioning and problem-solving

"One Book Picture Book Health Class" is an activity-based class that allows teachers to communicate freely with students.
First, we increase interest in the class by explaining the topic through a picture book, and then we naturally lead the children to participate directly by continuing with three activities related to the picture book.
The unique feature of this book is that the related activities are diverse and unique compared to existing health classes.
We have provided opportunities to experience a variety of teaching methods suited to the times, including games, edutech, discussions, and creation.
Through these rich activities, children communicate with their friends, ask questions, and find ways to solve problems on their own.

Specifically, it is divided into six health education topics, and each chapter is arranged into detailed lesson topics.
Each lesson topic section includes recommended audiences and learning objectives, picture book information and introductions, explanations and examples of related activities, as well as photo materials to aid understanding and helpful tips for class.
Additionally, activity sheets that can be used immediately in class are included with QR codes on the book flaps.
This book will help teachers design health education from a new perspective, and students will be able to approach health classes with a light and enjoyable mind.

Author's Note

Health education becomes more meaningful when I apply what I know to my real life.
Knowledge learned only from textbooks somehow feels distant.
However, by utilizing picture books, you can ask a variety of questions about difficult topics covered in health classes and help students find their own solutions.
This book is intended to be a gift to teachers who are feeling overwhelmed about teaching health classes, and to be helpful in teaching research for teachers who are struggling to find meaningful lessons.
