Abstract
The purpose of this study, in the area of health promotion, is to help students to acquire the ability to use what they have learned about exercise and health.
In order to accomplish the above purpose, I studied developing a curriculum which relates health education and physical education. For the seventh grade students, I conducted a health education class about aerobics and the strength of exercise. I also had a physical education class on middle-distance races. I utilized a table based on The Karvonen method for the strength of exercise.
After the study, I found that the students were able to exercise according to their ability using the table of the strength of exercise. I believe that developing the above curriculum improved not only the students' motivation in health education, but also their motivation for middle-distance racing in physical education.
