SPARK creates, implements, and evaluates programs that promote lifelong wellness.

Obesity is a big problem. SPARK is here to help!

SPARK Background Originally funded in 1989 by Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute of N.I.H. SPARK is the conduit that moves research to practice Over 40 publications proving SPARK programs work and last! “ Children are our most valuable natural resource.” Herbert Hoover

SPARK Programs

SPARK Is About Moving and Learning Time to Pata Pata!

Being “ picked ” for “ teams ” Sitting on roll call numbers Standing in lines waiting a turn Relays and elimination activities Fitness as punishment Focus on star athletes Sharing 1 ball with 45 close friends Using people for target practice PE and PA “Hall of Shame”

Being picked last for teams Standing in lines waiting for a turn Fitness as punishment Focus on star athletes Grouping by gender Sharing 1 ball with 30 close friends Big people throwing balls at little people Relay races Elimination games Inappropriate-sized equipment These things DO NOT happen in SPARK! Hall of Shame

Healthy People 2010 Goals for Youth Physical Activity Objectives for physical activity in youth: Moderate physical activity Vigorous physical activity Provide daily school physical education PE classes that are highly active

How Much MVPA in PE Classes? The Goal = 50%* The Usual = 36%** *Healthy People 2010 Goal **Catch and NICHD baselines = 36% MVPA (900 schools, 3rd grade: McKenzie 1995; Nader, 2003) **TAAG Baseline = 37% MVPA (36 middle schools, 6 states, McKenzie et al, MSSE, 2006)
