Physical Activity Participation

During the winter months our students don't get to go outside due to the weather, so we decided to create a Winter Wellness Club. Students get to come into the gym during their recess time to participate in various physical activities for 20 minutes. The students really enjoy participating in the Wellness Club. If they don't participate in the Wellness Club they have to go and watch a movie for recess. This has been a huge success in our school.

How do you plan to make this Play last during the school year and beyond?

I am going to offer the Wellness Club though out the whole year. The students would rather come in and play even on recess days.
