[email protected] CSPAP Area of Focus: Physical Activity after school and Family involvement Action Plan Idea: Take home fitness bags Give us a brief summary of your action plan and a few details of how you implemented it. I wanted to increase physical activity after school and family involvement. I offered take home fitness bags for students in grades 2nd-‐5th. I had students fill out permission slips and had them signed by parents. I rotated classes each week and checked out bags on Thursdays and had students return the bags on Mondays. I used extra equipment that I had and put the equipment in colored mess laundry bags. I had basketball, soccer ball, jump rope short and long, and football. I also included a list of activities that I had the students come up with of games to play with their families, or parks and places to play nearby. I also listed activities I gathered from the resources we received at our trainings. At the end of the year I had parents and students fill out surveys on what they liked about the bags and ways to improve the fitness bag program.
