Description : This e-Learning course was designed in collaboration with the University of Nebraska Omaha’s School of Health and Kinesiology with funding from CHI Health. This information is intended for classroom teachers, after school providers, and other youth-serving organizations looking to increase classroom physical activity. While this information will always be applicable, special consideration was paid to current COVID-19 restrictions, including how to include physical activity in a virtual classroom setting. We were able to partner with Dr. Dinkel and her student researcher in order to develop these modules and share them out on our FB and website. These modules were shared out to our building partners and our OPS partners to share with their contacts in order to make classroom physical activities COVID safe.
