    A1 The home & School are first lines of defence when it comes to staving off an inactive lifestyle. We have such a great chance... #pechat
  • MrPhysicalEd Sep 18 @ 7:19 PM EDT
    I like how you phrased it "schools". A lot of parents are fed misinformation about what it means to be healthy. We pick up the slack #PeChat
  • adegiorgioPE Sep 18 @ 7:20 PM EDT
    A1. To influence of Ss lives in a positive way when it comes to being active and making movement an inherent part of their lives #pechat
  • JoeyFeith - Moderator Sep 18 @ 7:20 PM EDT
    A1. First off, let's be clear as to what health-promoting schools are. Here's @WHO's definition. #pechat
    In reply to @WHO
  • CoachPerry_PE Sep 18 @ 7:20 PM EDT
    I feel it is essential because technology has made children lazy and they not only have unhealthy lifestyles they forget how to play #peChat
    In reply to @JoeyFeith
  • adegiorgioPE Sep 18 @ 7:21 PM EDT
    Better yet, we can help inform that disconnect if we approach it the right way! #pechat #healthycommunities

  • JoeyFeith - Moderator Sep 18 @ 7:21 PM EDT
    Is tech really the only culprit though? Could there be more factors influencing unhealthy habits? #pechat

    A1. A few things to think about. What is the role of a school if not to educate the whole child in a coordinated effort? #pechat
  • CoachPerry_PE Sep 18 @ 7:25 PM EDT
    More factors of course, some physical education teachers focus on activities and movement and forget the health portion of a lesson #Pechat
