These materials will help the students realize how much more they have to move in a day in order to live a healthy lifestyle. The pedometers will help them to move more and be less sedentary.
While counting steps and being active, math skills will also be used in adding and dividing steps into miles and counting toward their "Marathon Kids" Steps.
Most of my kids will never get exposed to any kind of fitness tracker, or be encouraged in any way to move at home. Making them more aware at school about movement will hopefully carry out to the home, and they can get their families moving.
