Did you know kids need 60 minutes of play each day? Help the School Wellness Club complete 3 million minutes of movement in just 6 days!
We are on the mission to help make moving 60 minutes every day rewarding and fun. By making moving a priority, we are giving kids the ultimate reward of a healthy lifestyle. All schools are invited to participate in the Mission to Move Challenge.
In the Mission to Move Challenge we will still have a free submission for all schools to submit their minutes moved in the classroom and at home.
NEW this year, we have Mission to Move Challenge Kits to support schools. Challenge kits are designed to provide one curricular lesson each week for 6-weeks. Each lesson provides movement for students and also opportunities to build strong character to help them understand and sustain healthy habits in the future. Each Challenge Kit also has physical resources to reward students on the spot for their strong efforts and attitudes while completing the challenge at school, or at home.
CHALLENGE KITS INCLUDE:
- Physical Student Rewards (510 individual items)
- School Progress 5 x 5 Interactive Banner
- Yard Signs (25)
- Digital Bulletin Board Assets
- Digital Teacher Curricular Guide (6 lessons)
- Pre-Activity Worksheet, Video, & Student Journal
- Digital Special Curricular Resources (2 per specials)
- Art, Music, STEM, Physical Education, & Library
- Digital Student/Family Guide
