麻豆视频 40 students from University Hill Elementary School will be treated to breakfast and an exhibition by rope-skipping experts on Nov. 18 as part of CU-Boulder聮s Breakfast Club.
The media is invited to cover this final workshop, a unique community service project of nutrition and exercise developed through the Farrand Academic Program at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Farrand students act as personal trainers for the elementary school students.
The Skip-Its, a group from Douglass Elementary School in Boulder County trained by physical education teacher Rich Cendali, will conduct a clinic teaching tricks, stunts and special competition routines to the kids.
This is the sixth meeting of the Breakfast Club, also known as El Club de Desayuno, a before school program that offers an exercise session and a free nutritious breakfast. Previous meetings have combined good breakfasts with clinics on such activities as karate, aerobics, folk dancing and running. The Breakfast Club will meet at 8 a.m. in the gymnasium of the University Hill Elementary School, located at 956 16th St. in Boulder.
The program was developed by Laura de Ghetaldi, a lecturer for the CU-Boulder kinesiology department and School of Education. She said that in addition to providing a nutritious meal to the children, the program "directly links the ongoing research that supports the importance of exercise linked to wellness."
