Room Creativity

1. How do you plan to address the room creativity expectation?
My senior topic is on diabetes so I want to make the room look like a doctors office. I'm going to hang black curtains so I can pin up posters of medical things. I also wanted to set the set in fours and put white paper. the white paper and a pillow. and in the middle lollipops. Also going to have a first aid kit there to show them what should be in there for a diabetic. Also going to have a measuring tape to show the height also when they come in to sign their name to make it look like they have an doctors app.

2. What activity ideas do you have for answer 1 or 2?
For my answer 1 it was managing your stress levels. I haven't really thought of an activity for this one yet but i had an idea. My service learning person Jo Ann trying to think of a way I could do an activity that short and fast. For my Second answer it is excising. I'm going to make an obstacle course and it will show different ways you can do cardio. I will split them up in three groups and time how fast they can go with doing eat course. It will be running, jumping, and speed walking. Its to show how to get the heart pumping and going for type 2 diabetes. I will also do some stretching before we start so that they don't pull any muscle. We might even do a light jog just to start off.

Answer 2

EQ: What is the best way for a person with type 2 diabetes to manage their condition?

Answer: My answer 2 is to exercise because with me exercise in your daily routes you can really mange your body and type 2 diabetes. The best kind of exercise is cardio because you want to get the heart pumping so that you can burn off fat.

• My service learning person Albert Martinez told me about his patients and what he tells them to do in order to maintain there diabetes. He told me that cardio is good for your heart and patients with type 2 diabetes. It gets the blood flowing and it make them lose weight so that they can manage there condition. He told me as his patients lose weight there got there diabetes under control. By under control I mean they had less compilations then before. Type 2 diabetes can get out of hand because you can heart problems, kideny failure, etc... By losing weight it can really reduce even more risk well you have type 2 diabetes.
• My another source will be from WebMD because they have an article on execrising daily while on type 2 diabetes. They stated that if you just walk, running, speed walk for 30 mins it can be a start to exec rise. Also by reducing the your type 2 diabetes and making you take less medication. If you are a diabetic with blood pressure problems you make lower your condition by exercising. Also said that by being overweight or obese by being type 2 diabetes it can lead to another conditions. It also states that by losing weight it can may get you off the medication that you may not need anymore. It help the type 2 diabetics a lot if they exercise.
• My last source is JoAnn Schultz she is a nurse who told me about how everyone she exercise and expertly for diabetics. you don't want to have to much fat around the heart because then that will be really bad.  She told me that Cardio and aerobics is really good for type 2 diabetes. people who dont have arms or legs it good to move the legs around. you can always ask your doctor some execrise that you can do for your certain condition. 

Well all in all type 2 diabetes people really need to watch their weight so that they don't need. I think its really good for more exercise even its a little bit. people need to think about there body and really know how to mange.
