I teach in an inner-city public charter school with limited resources and a limited budget. We have a high number of students who deal with weight problems and drive to focus on making healthier decisions. I believe that the "Walking Towards A Healthier Life" project will give students a chance to focus on exercise in a safe environment. Many overweight students are shy or embarrassed during physical education class, but everyone can walk. Learning how to use the pedometers and track their achievements in our computer lab will allow students to see their successes and learn from their failures. The project will provide a more friendly environment for students to focus on making healthier decisions in their lifestyles.
