The Michigan Model for HealthTM program aligns with ASCD's Whole Child Framework.

A Collaborative Model

ASCD's Whole Child FrameworkTM  is an educational approach that emphasizes the development of students beyond academics, focusing on comprehensive growth. The framework is built on the belief that every student must be healthy, safe, engaged, supported, and challenged to achieve their full potential. These five tenets are interconnected and work together to create a learning environment that addresses all aspects of a child's development.

The framework encourages schools, families, and communities to collaborate in supporting students' social, emotional, physical, and cognitive growth, ensuring they are prepared for success in school and life. The process image likely illustrates these tenets and their interconnections, showing how each element contributes to the holistic development of the child.

WHOLE CHILD ALIGNMENT

The Michigan Model for HealthTM program aligns with the Whole Child approach by providing a comprehensive health education curriculum that supports student well-being, healthy decision-making, and skill development across all five tenets of the framework:

  • promotes physical and mental health (healthy)
  • teaches safety and injury prevention (safe)
  • uses interactive methods to increase student involvement (engaged)
  • fosters social-emotional skills and a positive classroom climate (supported)
  • provides rigorous, developmentally appropriate content (challenged)
