Get Moving - Get Outside!
By:
Cornerstone: Health and Fitness
Name: Get Moving - Get Outside!
Participants: All student K-5, staff, and families
Purpose: We were purposeful about holding special events outdoors.
Teachers took the learning outside!
We also looked for more ways to add physical activity into the instructional time.
Team building needs space!
All students at Justin Elementary get a 30 minute recess.
Teachers were encouraged to ADD an additional short recess or outside break to long instructional periods in the day.
Teachers were also intentional about adding MOVEMENT BREAKS after the students had been sitting for longer than 45 minutes. Go Noodle is a series of short videos with words and music to energize and get kids moving for 1-5 minute segments.
