Anderson Elementary created a club during recess time which we call Fox’s Fun Time Club. Once a week, 4th grade students that completed an application to be part of the club, along with a parent recommendation, come to the gym to participate in a movement activity that typically isn’t allowed during a regular recess time, due to a lack of adult supervision. These students also work towards completing different plays. Once a month, we head to the computer lab to report on the different completed challenges and plays to earn points. Thirty-two students make up the club and they continue to spread the word about Fuel Up To Play 60 and encourage participation in the all-school plays of Snacking Smarter at School and Getting Moving in the Classroom.
