Action Schools
Today we had an great talk from a member of Action Schools. They talked about different ways of incorporating active lessons into the curriculum in order to help get kids more active. I think that this program is great because with the cuts in physical education in schools recently, teachers have been less likely to get their students being active on a daily basis. The books they supplied us with give us easy lesson plans and they list what grades they can be good for, as well as the learning outcomes. This can really help teachers, especially new teachers, incorporate these active lessons into their daily routine while having a strong purpose for them. I am looking forward to applying what I learnt today in my teaching.
Brain breaks through activity is so helpful!! It is wonderful that you see the value!
