I saw this on the news the other evening and found it very intersting to know that the schools are acknowledging and actually incorporating exercise into the ciriculum at school. They realize that increasing exercise actually leads to better educational performance.

Interesting that there are a few Bloom's pyramids floating around out there. When you do a search, it brings up a new "revised" version. Even comparing notes before the exam, people had different layouts.

A story I just heard this morning on NPR about healthy lifestyles and how it may be related to telomeres. A small study but a good place to start. I was also thinking who has that much time to do yoga, meditate and spend more time with family/loved ones! Maybe after graduation, however, a little may go a long way.
