Who should attend? Elementary, high school, and middle school classroom/title teachers and principals.
The goal of Be Fit 2 Learn is to enable K-12 staff and students to understand the benefit of 60 minutes of activity a day in order to become more physically active in the classroom, on the playground, and throughout the school day. The two-day workshop is designed for participants to learn classroom design that can improve academic achievement, teach behavior and create connections. The first 25 registered participants will receive a tool kit, valued at $200, which will provide the materials needed to implement 60 minutes of physical activity in school by challenging the students’ minds and bodies.
Who will be conducting the training? Lois Mauch, MS and Dr. Ann Goldade
