Unterrichtsentwurf aus dem Jahr 2015 im Fachbereich Pädagogik - Schulpädagogik, Note: 2,0, Staatliches Seminar für Didaktik und Lehrerbildung (Grund- und Hauptschule) Pforzheim, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Ausführlicher Unterrichtsentwurf zu einer Lehrprobenstunde im Fächerverbund Wirtschaft - Arbeit - Gesundheit. Thematisiert wird der Zuckergehalt von Trendgetränken sowie die Auswirkungen auf die Ernährung der Jugendlichen. Durchgeführt in einer 8.Klasse, kann aber auch in anderen Jahrgangsstufen oder Schularten (MuM) angewandt werden.Die Ernährung ist seit jeher ein Grundbedürfnis des Menschen und bildet somit die wichtigste Grundlage aller menschlichen und tierischen Lebewesen. Sie dient uns zum Aufbau unseresKörpers sowie der Aufrechterhaltung unserer Lebensfunktionen. Zudem beeinflusst sie das körperliche, geistige, physiologische und soziale Wohlbefinden. Um den Körper mit den notwendigen Nährstoffen zu versorgen, ist es wichtig, auf eine nährstoffreiche und ausgewogene Ernährung zu achten.Bei Jugendlichen nimmt eine gesundheitsförderliche Ernährung häufig einen zu geringen Stellenwert ein. Die Nahrungsaufnahme gilt lediglich der Befriedigung ihres Hungerbedürfnisses oder vollzieht sich zusehends als sozialer Akt in außerhäuslichen Institutionen. Welche Inhaltsstoffe in den einzelnen Lebensmitteln zu finden sind und wie sich diese Stoffe auf unseren Körper auswirken, ist den meisten Jugendlichen nicht bewusst. Um die Schüler für eine gesundheitsförderliche Ernährungsweise zu sensibilisieren und ihnen damit wertvolle Kenntnisse und Fertigkeiten zu vermitteln, wird dieses Thema im WAG-Unterricht behandelt.
