Springboard to Active Schools has been working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and several national partners to reimagine what physical activity for students looks like during COVID-19.
Physical education and opportunities for movement are a critical part of the learning experience. Although students are learning differently during pandemic, the fact remains that America’s children still need to be physically active for at least 60 minutes each day as the CDC recommends.
Springboard to Active Schools has developed new resources to help schools integrate classroom physical activity with a safety, inclusion, and equity lens in different learning settings, which are available here and on Springboard’s website.
Resources
- Considerations for classroom physical activity during COVID-19
This Springboard resource provides district and school administrators, teachers, and caregivers, and families with practical ideas and considerations to safely and equitably incorporate classroom physical activity to promote a culture of active engagement and learning. - Classroom Physical Activity Ideas and Tips
This Springboard one-pager provides teachers with tips on how to effectively engage students in active learning, followed by printable sheets of activity/energizer cards for different grade levels and learning settings (in-person vs. virtual). - Keeping Kids Physically Active: Tips for Caregivers
This Springboard one-pager provides simple tips and suggestions for parents/caregivers on how to support children and youth in getting 60 minutes of physical activity every day.
