SPARK

Curricula

The SPARK Program curricula are designed to be practical and effective tools for all physical activity providers. All SPARK curricula are presented in 3-ring binders for fast access to materials. Simply pull out a lesson, put it on a clipboard, and take it to class.

Many factors were considered in the preparation of The SPARK Programs: recommendations of curriculum experts, professional organizations, national and state guidelines and frameworks, and Healthy People Goals 2010. The SPARK Programs understands budgetary constraints that restrict schools from purchasing expensive apparatus and equipment. And, The SPARK Programs saw the need for a user friendly document which can be implemented in the real world.

Lifetime support and consultation from SPARK are included with your book purchase, as well as discounts on “SPARK stuff” (t-shirts, water bottles, whistles, etc.). Complete equipment packages from Sportime are available too with free shipping!
