Well done Brianne! I really enjoyed reading your 1st blog post. I love how you included a quote at the beginning of your blog post. I completely agree with your perspective on the importance of active health education! It’s so crucial for educators to recognize health as a holistic concept and to understand the various aspects of movement through the day. The 24-hour movement guidelines are a great framework for this.
Your example of daily physical activity (DPA) at your elementary school is a great illustration of how these guidelines can be implemented effectively. It’s clear that without awareness of evidence-based guidelines, such measures might be overlooked, which would be a missed opportunity for promoting healthier lifestyles.
I think that by prioritizing sleep, reducing sedentary behaviour, and encouraging both physical and light activity, educators can guide students toward healthier and happier lives. Thanks for sharing your insights and experiences!
