What Is it All About?
Students participate in a daily physical activity circuit over a period of time to increase their personal wellness and physical literacy.
Why Do It?
Students have fun while they role model healthy, active living by participating in a wellness challenge.
How Do We Do It?
A student leader or lead teacher creates a physical activity circuit station.
Before, during, or after school, participants complete the circuit in a given amount of time.
Participants try to complete the circuit every day for the duration of the challenge, tracking their activity on a personal form or chart.
What Else Do We Need?
Equipment (e.g., mats, skipping ropes, free weights or medicine balls, rubber tubing)
How Do We Get Creative?
Change the stations daily.
Every week a have a new theme challenge.
Engage members of the community to lead classes or arrange for participants to take a trip to a local studio to take a physical activity class.
Think about the fundamental movement skills that can be incorporated.
