Lesson is utilized for “@ home” learning prior to the fitness testing portion of the school year. Students are provided with a variety of exercises to be performed at home during remote learning period. The exercises are intended to improve the students fitness as well as performance on upcoming fitness assessments.

This is a Physical Education resource to be used to expand Physical Education programs to the larger community. This resource includes a downloadable document that teachers may edit and revise to match the needs of their students and program. The calendar template can be used for different months and is met to be a resource for students and their families.

An example of a lesson plan of a fun game for Physical education students.

Designed for lower elementary, but can be used at any age for a warm up or station activity. Can be done in a regular classroom, physical education class or at home. Great fitness activity done with using only a deck of cards

This lesson was created as a remote learning activity for K-5 students taking into consideration limited resources students may or may not have at home. Fitness, Teamwork, Problem Solving and Planning required.

"In the battle against mosquito-born disease, scientists are turning to one of the world’s oldest practices for help: matchmaking. Releasing sterile or genetically altered male mosquitoes into the wild to mate with females prevents those mosquitoes from reproducing and going on to spread disease. But understanding more about what females find attractive could help create males they’ll mate with. So what do female mosquitoes look for in a mate? Researchers from the United Kingdom recently revealed that being a good listener matters…at least to Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, a species responsible for transmitting diseases such as yellow fever, dengue, and Zika. Many mosquito species mate in midair. As they fly, their beating wings produce unique sound patterns, and a male must match a female’s sound pattern to gain her romantic interest. This is called harmonic convergence. Various factors influence how well the insects can match these mating tunes, but the researchers decided to focus on body size..."

"Plant diversity is quickly dwindling across the world. That’s put our planet’s pollinators in danger. Pollen contains a variety of nutritional elements that are key to life itself. Not only are global changes affecting pollen amounts, they’re also affecting pollen varieties. This means that many pollinators, including bees, aren’t eating the best-balanced diet they need to survive. Understanding how the elemental ingredients in pollen affect different traits in bees, such as their survival, body mass, and ability to protect themselves, could help scientists determine whether and how the scarcity of specific nutrients affects them. And it could lead to new ways of conserving pollinators and the critical roles they play in many ecosystems. For their part, researchers from Jagiellonian University in Poland examined the effects of an inadequate supply of potassium, sodium, and zinc in pollen on _Osmia bicornis_, the red mason bee..."

Myofascial trigger-points are a hot topic in the world of pain management. The issue that most critics have with myofascial trigger-points or other tissue-driven pain problem is that it is an oversimplification of a very complex process. It is still not know if our manual treatments are ‘correcting a local pathology' or if it just sensory input leading to a cascade response through the nervous system resulting in the 'descending modulation' of the pain experience.

"Life, in all its forms, is a constant balance of energy and matter. A look at any food web reveals how organisms are tightly connected to each other and their environment. On the smallest and most fundamental scale, the process is cyclical. Atoms representing vital minerals flow in a never-ending circuit from one sink to the next. Understanding this flow helps scientists answer questions about how organisms transform food into energy and body mass for growth and survival. But while these strategies tend to vary with species, life stage, and sex, studies often treat members of a population as being, for all intents and purposes, the same. Researchers from Jagiellonian University in Poland are taking a different approach. By tracking the assimilation, excretion, and allocation of the individual minerals found in pollen, they’re beginning to understand how the diet of the red mason bee contributes to its growth and survival and how the nutritional budget differs with life stage and sex..."
