Physical Activity in the Classroom
Overview
VERB worked with Weekly Reader Custom Publishing to develop school-based
materials that promote physical activity. Download teacher and student materials
developed for fourth- and fifth-grade classes.
Versions of the materials were developed in English only and in English with
some Spanish. Materials were adapted for distribution among several ethnic
