Be Fit and Learn ! 

The “BE FIT AND LEARN" program is the newest innovative approach to incorporating physical activity into the classroom. We know that many teachers around the country are required to provide daily structured play or physical activity. This can be overwhelming or impossible with the time constraints of the day, the lack of available outdoor area, and inclement weather.

BE FIT AND LEARN offers a solution in the form of a DVD. With BE FIT AND LEARN you can supply your students with daily physical activity right in your classroom! Not only will the students be getting fit, but they will also be learning the "Content Standards" through movement and song. Your students will be motivated to learn Science and Social Studies content area standards, through fun poems, songs and raps included in this program.

BE FIT AND LEARN was developed to be executed by ALL students. The Exceptional Education students, ESOL students and the regular education students will be provided with an additional method of learning concepts. They can "hook" the content to the movement and songs; this will help them to remember key concepts being taught. Research shows there is definitely a learning connection through music and movement.

BE FIT AND LEARN was specifically designed to be repetitive at times to give the students many opportunities to recite the poems and songs with the choreographed movements. This will ensure they are truly learning the concepts.

Our goal is for the students to think about the songs as they apply what they have learned to standardized tests, assessments and daily life. How many of us still need to recite the poem about the months of the year, to remember how many days are in each month? Or recite the "i" before "e" except after "c" when spelling certain words? Based on this, students will be able to remember important concepts because they have been connected to song and movement.
