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!
