Comprehensive school physical activity programs (CSPAPs) aim to increase students’ physical activity opportunities across the entire school day. Home fun (formally known as homework) is an underutilized strategy that can address multiple CSPAP components. This article from the May/June issue of Strategies provides a definition of “home fun,” applications to address interdisciplinary goals, and guiding principles for creating effective home fun tasks.

News Around the Nation

 

EdSurge
Evidence abounds that children and teens are more successful when they have warm, caring relationships with educators and peers; instruction in building important life skills; and a sense of belonging in school. Again, this isn’t a liberal or conservative opinion to argue, it's an objective, research-based fact. Above all else, these ideas are not part of some new ideology. They’re common sense. 

 

K-12 Dive

All but one of the witnesses at the House Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Subcommittee hearing of the Oversight and Reform Committee expressed alarm that increased efforts to prohibit classroom discussions about race and LGBTQ issues undermine public education. Efforts to prohibit these conversations throw up barriers to inclusive schools, said Willie Carver, a teacher at Montgomery County High School in Mount Sterling, Kentucky. 

 

Medical Xpress

Many young people spend much of their time using digital screens, which may reduce their engagement in physical activity. But children have always been sedentary during most of their awake time. In this study, published in the journal JAMA Pediatrics, researchers conducted a carefully designed randomized controlled trial to determine whether children's use of screen media devices truly affects their engagement in physical activity or if screen time is just replacing other sedentary behaviors. 

 

School News Network

Sparta High School’s strength and conditioning program, led by coach Michael Graham, was one of just 39 from across the country to earn the title of Program of Excellence from the National High School Strength Coaches Association. Graham, who teaches PE and health in addition to strength and conditioning, said about half of the students he has in a class are athletes, while the other half are taking the class just for credit. 

NEW RELEASE!
Reach Every Athlete Coaching Book Cover
