How do you incorporate exercise throughout the day or just little ways to stay more active/moving? I'm thinking of getting a standing desk or larger podium and if I have the time do a few discrete walking laps around the building during my break. Would love some other suggestions!

I don't sit at my desk during class. I am always up and helping students anyway. Since I teach all day except for lunch (no planning) I don't have any problems getting enough exercise.

I have a 10 minute active brain break between reading and math. We usually pull up a this or that on YouTube. Or a "run" of some sort.

I also do "scoots."

Ooooh... You mean teachers. Hahaha I have a standing desk and get about 10000 steps a day.

I’ve been trying to start a habit of waking for an hour every day after summer school with my dog to decompress and enjoy the outside! I travel between 4 different classrooms through the day so I do plenty of movement in my school building lol

Run during lunch

I take a lap around the building during planning and do stretches and wall push ups during lunch. I also take my clothes and hit the trail right after school. If I get home and sit down, it’s over.

Stretch in the stairwell and walk up and down the stairs during lunch

I teach music and on lots of days, we are up, dancing for part of the class. If I know that we're not going to be doing that, I will incorporate stretches and breathing exercises into the beginning of our classes. I know it's not much, but it does get me up and moving!
