Introducing Walkabouts
Discover the easiest way to activate elementary
curriculum with movement.
The Walkabouts platform delivers active learning solution that is proven to help students focus more and perform better.
What are Walkabouts?
Walkabouts are more than brain breaks! Our web-based lessons activate Pre-K through 2nd grade curriculum with fun, standards-based movement. No special equipment or extra space needed!
WHY JUST TALK ABOUT IT —
WHEN YOU CAN WALK ABOUT IT?
Walkabouts are on-demand adventures that transform math, language arts, and reading content into short, movement-rich activities for Pre-K through Second Grade students. This research-based online tool makes it easy for teachers and parents to create lessons that bring key concepts to life through physical activity. Walkabouts even correlate to the state standards teachers already use to develop and manage their lesson plans. Plus, unlike traditional videos, Walkabouts are dynamic and different every time they play.
Around the world, students are moving less and less. They’re learning less, too. But recent research (from experts like our founder, Dr. Julian Reed) offers some good news: Physically active children aren’t just healthier, they learn better.
The Walkabouts platform was created to help kids move more — and learn more! Walkabouts are simple-to-use, cost-effective online lessons that help teachers, school systems, and parents bring educational standards to life in fun, interactive ways.
Perfect for elementary classes as well as before school and afterschool programs, Walkabouts don’t just increase students’ physical activity, they make educational standards come to life as movement-rich exercises.
A recent study showed that active kids are 20% more likely than their sedentary peers to earn an A in math or language. Third-party university research also shows that an active education leads to:
Increased student engagement and achievement
Improved comportment
Reduced behavior referrals
Adoption of healthy habits and reduced obesity
EACH WALKABOUT IS:
Add fun to fundamentals in just a few easy steps!
After they are logged in, teachers and parents can select a Walkabout in just a few clicks. Within minutes, students will be out of their seats and engaged in an active lesson that integrates fundamental movements such as hopping, jumping, and running with math, language arts, and reading content. Watch sample videos below!
WHAT TEACHERS ARE SAYING:
“I just wanted to tell you how much our class is enjoying Walkabouts. We are using them as introductions to lessons and during transitions times. I use them just about everyday!.”
— Michele D, Kindergaten Teacher
“The Walkabouts platform is a wonderful way to provide movement and formative assessments simultaneously. Students enjoy moving, while teachers can observe mastery of standard based skills.”
— Wendy H, Elementary Principal
