In-Class Physical Activity Breaks — Good For Mind and Body

Topics:

Student Leadership

One of my students leaders has been implementing taking short breaks during her classes. She has been able to spread the word and get 4 out of her 8 classes to implement this strategy. This has been a success because her whole class participates in this short activity. On another note, she was chosen for a $50 Get The Word Out prize pack!

How did you accomplish your goals?

She was able to ask her teachers to incorporate a break during class and get a short physical activity to promote mental health and refocus.
