Let's Get READY to CATCH!

CATCH
UC CalFresh attended Hamilton and Jefferson Elementary READY After School Program.  Our program focused on educating students about the importance of engaging in physical activity to maintain a healthy heart. Students learned how to check their heart rate at a resting and exercising rate to determine to if their body is engaging in physical activity.  In addition, students learned the different body cues when engaging in physical activity; for example, sweat, warm body, and tiredness. Students participated in many CATCH Go Activities and had a lot of fun! They also enjoyed a delicious guacamole taste test! Students are always encouraged to try new foods and make healthy decisions!
