Looking for ways to build physical activity into your school day? Our Daily Physical Activity Manual has everything you need.
The manual contains over 150 activities to help Kingergarten to grade 8 teachers incorporate physical activity throughout the course of every school day. With activities specific to different grade ranges, the manual also provides tips on incorporating DPA into the school day and making it part of your school culture.
The manual takes you through the following steps of building a school that moves:
- finding 30 minutes in the school day
- finding space for daily physical activity
- getting support and building the case
- creating environments that foster active minds and bodies
A shared responsibility - If schools, communities and families each provide 30 minutes of physical activity, our province's children and youth can get the 60-90 minutes they need every day. The DPA Manual is an excellent tool to help you work toward providing 30 minutes of physical activity throughout the school day.
This manual would also be very beneficial to parents, daycares and community centres as the activities can easily be adapted to fit any environment.
