The goal of this grant is to support our morning #ubwell program. This program was developed with two goals in mind. The first is to allow students to engage in enjoyable physical activities. The second is to cultivate a sense of belonging and promote positive mood states through healthy and meaningful conversations between peers. The American School Counselor Association (ASCA) uses student standards to describe the knowledge, attitudes and skills student need to achieve academic success, college and career readiness and social/emotional development. These standards are broken down into two categories: Mindset Standards and Behavior Standards. The #ubwell program will incorporate multiple standards between the two categories as we focus on specific issues and challenges that middle school students encounter. Physical activity provides students with the opportunity to experience successes, identify obstacles, develop improved self-esteem, and take greater responsibility for their actions.
Students will meet in the morning twice a week with each day having a specific physical activity or ASCA student standard component. Topics that will be discussed on the discussion day include: self-image/self-talk, anxiety and stress, goal setting, bullying, depression/self-harm and connect with students. These topics will coincide with the ASCA student standards. For the physical activity days, students will use a standard scale to measure their level of engagement before, during and after to assess their enjoyment, intensity and pleasure/displeasure. A resource guide will also be provided to encourage students to engage in physical activity on their own.
The benefit to my students will focus on the three areas of the self-determination theory (SDT). This includes autonomy, competence and relatedness. Focusing on these areas will promote positive mental health through increased physical activity level, mood state and intrinsic motivation.
These items will be utilized as part of our physical activity day. Physical activity will be broken down into four different groups-Aerobic Training, Resistance Training, Flexibility Training and High Intensity Training.
