Exercise Helps Me

Exercise Helps Me | Companion Activity encourages understanding of the benefits of exercise from the life skills video through interactive exercises. Students answer yes/no and WH-questions, sequence exercise activities, and retell the video visually. Problem-solving scenarios focus on overcoming barriers to exercising.
