Al Haraka Baraka | Teachers Guide

Recent studies on activity programmes have shown that there are three main factors contributing towards a lasting change in our children’s lifestyles:
		Co-operation between the school authorities, schools and teachers. The duration of the activity programme and sustaining it as part of a regular activity programme for the school. Combination of educational efforts and a change in a child’s environment to promote a healthy lifestyle, both at school and at home.


Al Haraka Baraka aims to include parents, teachers, school supervisors, schools’ health departments and any other concerned organisations in this process by providing various resources. The teaching units included, specifically take into consideration that a certain amount of time is needed for children to adapt and, even more importantly, keep up a more active lifestyle. Al Haraka Baraka sets out to promote simple lifestyle modifications that can deliver positive physical activity experiences. This programme focuses on a whole list of routine movements that can be undertaken during the course of our everyday lives by eliminating physical, psychological and financial barriers.
