With The Walking Classroom, kids get fresh air and exercise while learning!
Educators report:
- Improved student engagement
- Increased motivation to learn after a Walking Classroom lesson
- Higher student attendance on Walking Classroom days
Our evidence-based, research-backed program lets your students get fresh air and exercise while they learn—all while aligning with state standards and ESSER funding requirements.
Easily used both in-person (and socially distanced) or virtually, The Walking Classroom offers an active, screen-free learning experience.
So how does The Walking Classroom work?
Students each need either our new mobile app or a preloaded “WalkKit” audio device with custom-written, entertaining, and educational podcasts on science, language arts, social studies, and more.
Students go for a brisk 20-minute walk while listening to the podcasts.›› Listen to a podcast on The Boston Massacre

Afterwards, lesson plans and quizzes help educators lead discussions to synthesize and solidify learning.›› Download the Boston Massacre Lesson Plan
