DPA allows our students to experience the physiological affects of movement on the brain (eg sense of calm, clearer thinking, increased focus, improved mood) while teaching them that \u201cMovement Breaks\u201d are a tool they can add to their lifelong toolbox.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>health<\/strong> education component focuses on developing students\u2019 knowledge, skills, attitudes and beliefs regarding several health topics including: nutrition, injury prevention, being a good sport, healthy relationships, personal boundaries, safety and hygiene.<\/p>\n<p>The combination of both physical and health education complements First Peoples perspectives and worldviews that recognize the significance of a holistic approach to maintaining one\u2019s health and well-being.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some resources to help your son\/daughter maintain their health from home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gonoodle Online, App and Youtube<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gonoodle.com\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-133 size-thumbnail alignleft\" title=\"http:\/\/schoolblogs.rockyview.ab.ca\/rvswellness\/2018\/06\/10\/go-noodle\/\" src=\"http:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/fortinn\/files\/2020\/04\/images-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gonoodle.com\"><strong>www.gonoodle.com\u00a0 <\/strong><\/a>&#8220;There&#8217;s no need to get sad&#8230; even if you have an indoor recess!
