Development and Feedback

This activity booklet has been developed by undergraduate teacher education students from Albion College, Concordia University, and the University of Michigan to help increase the number of physical activities implemented into the elementary classroom.

Results from the pilot helped to improve and clarify the content of these activities to make them useful for elementary classroom teachers. The results have been incorporated into the final draft of the materials. All materials are available on the MDE/EMC web sites for easy access for all elementary classroom teachers. Please share your feedback on these materials so that we may continue to improve upon and add to this program.  E-mail us with your comments and ideas.
