Rockland Schools Will be Jumping on Friday
It's the second annual March Forward event to promote the strong link between physical activity and academic achievement.
Steps to a Healthier Rockland County is sponsoring March Forward on March 7 to help students and teachers make the connection between physical activity, health and smarts.
What some Rockland schools are planning:
- Play dance music at designated times for whole-school participation
- Play a popular hip hop dance video on the smart board for the students (and teacher) to follow. Ask the students for their favorite.
- Create a 5-minute exercise video involving the school's PE teachers and students and make it available for students and teachers to follow along to
- Adapt the brain break activities (listed in the side bar to the right of this page) to the needs and interests of students
