March Forward - Rockland County's celebration of physical activity in the classroom, March 1st - 15th, 2022
Signature Event
March Forward - Rockland County's Classroom-based Physical Activity Awareness Month
In its 10th year, March Forward has evolved to be a two-week period in March when teachers engage students in new and fun physical activities to enhance learning and promote health. This year, teachers are encouraged to participate with students as a form of self-care to relieve stress.
Teachers across Rockland County choose one day during the first two weeks of March to share out how they incorporate physical activity in their classroom. Using #MarchForwardRC and tagging other schools, teachers post photos, videos and descriptions on social media about how they use physical activity to provide fun and energizing breaks or to enhance a lesson. Teachers are also asked to remind students of the March Forward message:
- Physical activity helps us do better in school.
- Physical activity helps us look and feel our best.
- Being physically active is a great way to make friends.
- Be physically active for at least 60 minutes each day.
