Establishing daily routines early in the school year is essential to effective classroom management. This workshop is intended to give teachers a practical guide to classroom management.

As of February 2007, Mississippi passed a new Healthy Students Act that describes eight components of overall wellness that our students need in order to increase healthy days at school and better academic performance. This piece of legislation is significant because its mission is to decrease obesity, emotional distress and lost years of life in our youth by requiring more physical activity, increased social support and healthier food choices in schools each day. This act also encourages staff wellness, which is important for teaching our teachers and administrators how to model healthy behaviors each day in front of Mississippi's young people. Statistics show that this generation of Mississippi children will be the first generation that will not outlive their parents--unless something is done to prevent this disparity.
This six-week online course is designed to equip teachers and physical education instructors with the skills and knowledge necessary to implement some components of the wellness policy in the classroom or any school setting. In this course participants will engage in a variety of activities and readings that focus on food choices, weight management, stress management, healthy relationships, and disease prevention that will increase awareness and promote positive behavior changes in the classroom.
