Star Jumps: This exercise will get the heart pumping! Use it as a way to energize students in the morning or during an afternoon lull.
Star Yoga Pose: This is a great pose for balance and coordination. It’s also a great way to calm students after lunch or before a big test.
Fruit Star Wands: Add some magic into your classroom celebrations with fruit star wands. Prep time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
Preparation:
Fruit wands can be assembled the day before. Lay out the finished wands on a baking sheet, making sure to keep space between each wand. Layer parchment paper or plastic wrap between each layer of wands. Keep in the refrigerator overnight.
No need for waste! Remaining fruit from the cantaloupe, watermelon, grapes or pineapple can be used to make a beautiful fruit salad!
Ask parents to help create the fruit star wands at home, then bring them in – not all volunteering has to happen at the school.
Parents can also get creative and help make ‘Star Awards’ that you can customize for each student and use to celebrate their active and healthy achievements from the school year.
