Description:

With February being Heart Month and many schools (including ours) holding their Jump Rope for Heart events, I thought it'd be a great idea to do a bulletin board about keeping our hearts healthy and strong. Our school nurse had this picture of a cartoon heart lifting weights, representing a healthy heart. I used an overhead projector to make it bigger and then just colored it to match. Then I took a printable heart template and on each heart listed an activity for your heart (i.e. jump rope, play soccer, dance, hula hoop, climb a tree, etc.). This bulletin board is in the hallway where students enter our Multipurpose room. It will be up through the month of February and will serve as a good reminder that DAILY ACTIVITY = HEALTHY HEART!!
