de-fitnessfunIt’s time to get up and move! Exercise can be done indoors, outdoors and during any season! It’s a good thing, too, because exercise makes your muscles—including your heart—stronger, keeps you in top shape and feeling good, and releases endorphins in your body. Whether working in the garden, doing housework, hiking or playing games, your body appreciates the workout and will stay healthier and happier as a result. This issue is packed with ideas to make the most of your movements on the playground, in the backyard or in the home. Learn how completing chores—like pushing a broom or cleaning your room—builds muscles through resistance exercise. The “Go For It Challenge” will keep you busy up to an hour a day and helps develop lifelong habits. So grab your shorts, a comfy pair of shoes and start moving!

In this issue students will:

  • follow written directions to move
  • learn about benefits of exercise
  • calculate sums
  • identify similarities and differences
  • use the newspaper to see how math is used in sports
  • write an expository essay about having fun without electricity
