Don't Sit, Get Fit...AFter School!

4th-6th Graders are finishing up their last take home assignment of the year. It is an assignment encouraging all students to develop the habit of being active after school. Check out the assignment below!



Don’t Sit, Get Fit…After School!
Name___________________________________________ Grade________

Scientific research is telling us that if you move more throughout the day, you will live a longer, healthier life. After school, many kids are going home and sitting the rest of the day and night playing video games, surfing the web, or watching television. Instead of doing this, make it a goal to move! There are many options to choose from such as: sports, bike riding, jogging, flying a kite, walking the dog, hiking, or just playing games with friends. Try new things and get involved!

Below you will log seven days of ASA “After School Activity.” List the date, activity you participated in (ASA), and how long you spent doing it (Active Time). It is okay to do the same thing more than once. The goal is to make sure you are doing something active! Have fun!

Great Job! Now keep going! Make it a long-term goal to spend time being active after school. You will be healthier and feel better because of it. Don’t sit, get fit!
