Healthy Bodies Healthy Minds
With constant coverage in the news of the rising childhood obesity statistics of our nation's children. Riland has developed a program called Healthy Bodies Healthy Minds.
The premise of our program is that if a child is healthy they are more academically successful.
The program will begin in the 2010/2011 school year as an afterschool program and will be divided as such;
- Upon arrival the first 30 minutes will be snack and a little time to unwind from the rigidity of the classroom.
- Next we will have30 minutes of outside physical activity. (Weather permitting)
- Then students are given a drink and homework is begun.
- We work on homework for 1 hour.
- Finally after homework we will have a 30 min. inside physical activity followed by a fruit and water break.
- Once a week a nutritionist will come in to teach the students about nutrition, and healthy eating. Students will get a chance to make healthy snacks that they can make at home.
- The last 30 minutes the students will have free time to either work with artistic projects, play games or socalize. Students would weigh in once every two weeks.
The emphasis is put on being healthy not dieting. We strive to begin healthy habbits to last a lifetime.
If you would like this program at your child's school contact us.
