Morning Movers

Since 2010, Maple Lake Elementary has been out walking around the playground from 7:45-8:00 every morning. Morning Movers is a program designed to provide more movement opportunities for students throughout the school day. Morning Movers is simple, yet an effective initiative. The rules are:
  1. Walk or Jog
  2. Stay on the Path
  3. No Touching Others.
The benefits of Morning Movers are numerous...
  1. It gets the brain going.
  2. It is a great way for older students to connect with younger students and it creates a sense of pride and belonging.
  3. Students who are active tend to have more focus following the activity.
  4. And the list could go on...
