Introduction
Have you had an apple? An apple a day keeps the doctor away you know they say. When was the last time you saw the doctor? Do you know why it is important to see the doctor for checkups? Can you tell when you are sick or someone else? Always make sure you are on top of communicating with your doctors, parents and friends when something is wrong! Remember when your doctor is talking to you to always answer them truthfully for your own benefits. And never forget to communicate with our authorities when something is the slightest bit wrong.

Task
In order to help out our classmates, we must split into groups of five.
Once everyone is in a group we will pass out the pictures and begin.
Each group will begin by getting seven pictures, the pictures will include people who are healthy, unhealthy, sick, sad and happy.
It is your teams job to figure out which of the people on the cards have probably seen the doctor recently and who has had their fair share of apples and who has not.
Once we have figured it out, a member of your team will come to the front of the class, ring the bell and explain as to why you think you know who has seen the doctor and had their apples.
Which ever team finishes first will get apples and caramel as a prize, but remember there are no losers! There will even be prizes for those who do not finish first. Engagement is everything class.
Process
Step 1. Get into your groups of five
Step 2. Choose who from the group will go to the front of the class and do the explanation and ring the bell.
Step 3. After the pictures are handed out, when the teacher says begin flip them over and carefully look over them.
Step 4. Figure out who on the pictures has seen the doctor recently or had their apples! Also who has not seen the doctor.
Step 5. After you have figured it out, send up the chosen person to explain.
Step 6. Claim your prize.
