Sample Activities:
· WHAT'S A WORKOUT? - Brainstorm ways students can keep active. Ask students how many minutes they should be active every day in order to keep healthy. Write 30 minutes a day on the board, and explain that this recommendation comes from national experts. Explain that those experts also recommend safe and healthy ways to exercise and keep active. Write 5-20-5 on the board. Explain that each 30-minute workout session should have a beginning, middle, and end—just like a good story. Under the appropriate number, write the words warm-up, workout, and cool-down. Lead students through each segment of a workout, emphasizing the transition to the next segment and reinforcing why each part is important. Divide the class into three smaller groups. Each group designs an example of one aspect of the workout and shares it with the class.
