As part of First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move initiative to help fight childhood obesity, thousands of students took part in a flash workout earlier this week. Kids at hundreds of middle schools around the country danced the same dance to Beyonce’s song and video “Move Your Body” at exactly the same time. Check out the Let’s Move video above. Also this week In New Orleans, the School Health Connection program introduced a pilot brief physical activity lesson called Instant Recess® in several public high schools. Instant Recess® is a 10-minute, moderate intensity physical activity break that can easily be implemented in classrooms and can enhance children’s physical activity and potentially classroom performance as well. After completing its initial Instant Recess pilot this Spring, School Health Connection is scheduled to expand Instant Recess® within additional schools in the 2011 – 2012 school year.
