Thanks Amanda Miller for doing this.
For this school year we decided to implement a 0 period before we start academic instruction every day. The 0 period is a way for teachers to get their students outside and have them do some type of fitness activity to get the students blood flowing, minds clear, and to get the body working. Today was the start of our 0 period and it has been a blast.
