The Moving Our Children program will be introduced to our four remaining sites during
the 99/00 school year. These new sites include Frederick - one classroom, Platteville -
one classroom, Hudson - two classrooms and East Memorial in Greeley- 2 classrooms.
They will receive 10 training classes, 3 workshops and the same curriculum materials that
were presented to our 8 previous sites. They will also receive three new audio tapes
produced by Funfit and 2 Diamond Balls to facilitate classroom activities. The inclusion
of these sites will complete the training for all the teachers and aides involved in our Head
Start community.
The eight sites that participated in the previous two years of training will receive 6 booster
training's to keep these teachers motivated and further strengthen their teaching skills.
They will also receive three new audio tapes produced by FunFit, and two Diamond Balls
to use with their children in the classrooms. These teachers will also attend three in-

Each of the four new sites as well as the eight previous sites will receive two parent
workshops during the year. In addition to the workshops, all the parents in our

and bean bags to further enhance their children's strength, balance, endurance and
coordination.

our entire Head Stan community. This training and the curriculum materials will allow
them to continue promoting physical activities and active lifestyles to our children in the
