Vibrant FACES (Fun, Active, Confident, Energetic Self-images) is a free resource designed to promote a healthy, active lifestyle to adolescent students in Grades 7 and 8.
Vibrant Faces has been developed to help female and male students develop some of the skills necessary to overcome barriers to physical education, sport and physical activity participation and to lead active, healthy lifestyles. This revised resource has been designed for co-ed classes, with the hopes of having open honest discussions about why students do or don’t participate in physical activity while improving body image and self-image, and in doing so increase student participation in a lifetime of physical activity.
Directly linked to the Active Participation strand of the Ontario Health and Physical Education Curriculum, Vibrant FACES uses Fun, Active, Confident, Energetic Self-images to provide adolescent students with an opportunity to improve themselves in three distinct categories: physical activity, body image, and self image.
Vibrant FACES contains a user-friendly Teacher’s Guide, Student Guide, and product samples from participating sponsors.
The Vibrant FACES resources are available in English and French.
