Physical Activity

B3: Brain, Body, Behavior A multi-media curriculum that helps students develop their fundamental motor skills. By incorporating B3 activities into a classroom, gymnasium, or lab, schools can help students in Grades K–6 develop the fundamental motor skills to spark their brains, build their bodies, and improve their behavior to increase academic performance. Based on brain-body research, B3 physical activities can help enhance cognitive function, mental health, motor-skill development, social-emotional well-being, and common sensory problems. Developed to be used by professionals and educators who work with children on a daily basis, every B3 task card includes an image and written cues on how to perform the activity. Each card also identifies which sensory system(s) (visual, tactile, proprioceptive, auditory, or vestibular) the activity can help develop when performed consistently. Activities are designed to be easily implemented in any classroom, hallway, media center, small tutor room, mobile unit, gymnasium, on a stage, or in a principal’s office. Additionally, many of the B3 activities require little to no equipment. Come Out and Play A robust 8-week evidence-based curriculum designed for youth ages 6 to 12. It allows schools, community centers, parks and recreation agencies, and youth groups to create a culture of play using the great outdoors. Easy and fun to implement—and customizable for specific communities—the program is designed to encourage students to get 60 minutes of aerobic activity every day (9,000 steps) and to set their own daily step goal. The program focuses on youth empowerment, goal setting, motivation and community engagement. Though designed to show impact after 8-weeks, Come Out and Play can also operate as a continuous program. With over 50 activities, each with at least 2 modifiers, the program provides over 100 different activities for youth. It also offers the instructor the ability to evaluate physical fitness with pre- and post measurements.
