ARTICLE OF THE WEEK (AOW)
Recent data released by federal government has shown that eating disorders among children has increased by 119%. It is becoming a wide spread problem across the country. There are a lot of pressures to "look good" and have the "correct body image." Read this week's article to get some insight on what is causing these increases. Remember, there is an Extra Credit assignment you can do for every AOW which can be found on the Extra Credit Page.

Your heart is the strongest muscle of your body and beats about 100,000 times in one day, in an average adult.
There are 206 bones in the human body. One fourth of them are in your feet.
