Physical Literacy

Description

Physical Literacy

 

Like learning the alphabet is essential to reading, learning movement skills is essential to enjoying activities for life. In this half hour session, you will see how this program came to be, a definition of basic physical literacy, how it fits into a library program and some programming ideas. There is room in any story time for a bit of physical literacy.
