Motivate your elementary students through a family-based hiking activity. Your theme can be the Appalachian Trail, the Pacific Crest Trail or Tour de France (biking). Learn how to connect core content with increased physical activity (language arts, math and science elements) while utilizing fitness measurements (technology) through various physical education apps and step count data. Lifelong benefits are numerous and these activities quickly embed themselves in school and the community. You will be empowered to start tomorrow.
