Cheri Dotterer discussed her plan to incorporate physical activity breaks in the classroom for first-grade students. She observed students getting up and down in their seats and sitting on their knees and aimed to apply concepts she saw on the board on May 11. Dotterer emphasized the importance of physical activity in the crucial stage of learning and application for young students.
Action Step
1. Have kids do planks or wall push-ups when noticing fidgeting behaviors like getting up/down from seats or sitting on knees during lessons.
2. Implement the movement break ideas from the board (chewing, bouncing, etc.) into a lesson on May 11th.
