Wellness Week
May 4-8
Saint Paul Public Schools is
celebrating whole body wellness
in all schools! Take a look at each
day’s focus:
•Mindful Monday: Take a really
deep belly breath, hold it for
5 seconds, release until your
lungs are totally empty, repeat
and de-stress!
•Try It Tuesday: A balanced
diet is an important part of a
healthy lifestyle. Increase your
variety of fruits and vegetables
by trying to eat a rainbow off
of the Choice Bar. Put at least
three different colors on your
tray to make sure you’re getting all of the vitamins and
minerals your body needs to
be healthy. Try something new
you’ve never had before!
•Walk n’ Roll Wednesday: Wear
your helmets or sneakers for
National Bike/Walk to School
Day! It’s a fun, environmentally friendly and healthy way
to get to school. Whether you
are on two wheels or two feet,
take the active way to school
or work!
•Taste Test Thursday: Try the
winning cold salad featured on
the Choice Bar from the Recipe
Contest! (Recipe on back)
•Flash Mob Fit Friday: Take a
short break and get your groove
on to a new flash mob fave!

website for more great ideas on
