20% Project

My 20% project is going off the idea that sitting is the new smoking. I would like to try to get the kids in school to be more active. I was originally thinking of changing the class room environment but then that i would have to have a cost consideration. Then I had the idea of doing a short activity before class starts but that would take time out of learning. So the idea I'm leaning toward is to have a flash mob type situation in the commons. Not anything bad but start playing music and get people to dance. We have a five minute passing period so why not use 1-11/2 minutes to dance and get the kids more active.  My plans for October is to have the idea passed by the principle and to also have the music chose that I will play. And hopefully have our first dance session. I am also hoping to make this a regular thing at this school, so that people look forward to it.
