MSAD 11 Take Time

MSAD 11 has been participating in a program called Take Time since the 2004-2005 school year. Take Time is a physical activity program where the classroom teacher integrates physical activity into the normal class day. The teacher chooses may to jump rope and count by 2s or may decide to go for a walk to boost their student's brain function. Recent research is clear that physical activity is the best way to grow new brain cells. These new brain cells will help our students to learn better and have a healthier memory. For a more descriptive explanation of how physical activity boosts your brain please click on the video link below.

MSAD 11 staff have increased the amount of physical activity their classrooms are integrating each year. Please see attached document for the graph of these minutes.

Anthony will be adding more video clips for teachers to view for their classroom. If you have an activity that you would like Anthony to add to the video library please contact him at aanderson@msad1.org
