I would like to take a minute to thank you for providing my students with the opportunity to participate in your "Move More Kids" lessons.  As a teacher for more than 22 years, I have found this years class of twelve first graders to be one of the most challenging that I have taught.  The diverse needs and behavior concerns make every lesson I teach a huge challenge.  I use Responsive Classroom techniques and frequently break up our day with movement type activities, but your program of 20 minutes of extensive running far surpasses the sponge activities that I can offer my students.  I have found that my boys especially, have been more focused and more productive for our afternoon math lessons on the days that they have gym or Move More with you. I am a huge advocate for this type of programming for all students, but especially for our most active students. I commend you for putting the time and effort into developing this intervention for our students.  I see them growing and gaining skills thanks to our team effort! ~ Barb Welch

I do think that Move More worked!  My kids always would remind me that it was Thursday and it was "Move More Day".  Not only was it a good incentive but for those children who had some difficulties with the wiggles at the beginning of the year- it sure did help release some of that energy and made it easier for them to come back in the room and be more attentive and focused. ~ Cherey
