Mindful Roots is partnering with the Cucamonga School District summer school program to offer athletics classes for elementary students. These fun, rotating activities will introduce students to various sports and active challenges. The classes will support students with a range of needs, from ESN to moderate disabilities, with the goal of ensuring everyone stays active and engaged.
Sample activities include:
- Basketball (Focus on basic skills like passing, dribbling, and shooting)
- Soccer (Focus on simple kicking and chasing activities to promote movement and teamwork)
- Obstacle Courses and Balance Activities (Emphasizing coordination, balance, and fun)
- Fitness Stations (Implement stations with activities like jumping jacks, stretches, or seated exercises)
Instructors will create their own daily plans and adapt lessons to meet each student’s individual needs. Each class group will have about 12 students and last 30 minutes before rotating to the next group. The program serves students from Kindergarten through 6th grade.
