Step exercise is an excellent way to get the heart pumping while strengthening the leg muscles!
Providing steppers for 60 students may be a little pricey for teachers, but who needs steppers when your school has concrete planter boxes? Two teachers at Rowell Elementary improvised with what was available when it comes to stepping. Mrs. Mares and Mrs. Thao's 4th grade students made the most out of these four sided planters as each student was assigned a section to step on. The teachers led the classes by counting and stepping together.
Stepping is just one of the many ways the teachers incorporate physical activity throughout the day. The students also enjoy dance routines lead by Mrs. Mares.
Keep on stepping, Mrs. Mares and Mrs. Thao's class!
