December 2023 Printable Fitness Challenge Calendar

Students are challenged each day to participate in the activities listed on the calendar. For December, the exercises include pushups, crunches, arm circles, and bicycles. Each week, the number of repetitions for each fitness exercise increases. Please keep in mind the number of repetitions is meant as a guide, and can be adapted as needed based on age group and skill level.

Wednesdays are Cardio Day, where students will spend the alloted time either jumping rope, practicing their hula hoop skills, jogging in place, or a combination of these.

The calendar also includes task cards for each challenge on pages 2 and 3, so you can show your students images of the correct way to do the activities.

Staying Active During Winter Break

Winter Break is a great opportunity for kids to spend time excercising with their family and friends. Encourage and challenge students to spend time outdoors (depending on the weather) and increase their physical activity over break. They can get together as a group to complete the challenges each day. Send students home with the printed fitness calendar, and if you have a parent newsletter, make sure to mention the calendar and the importance of staying active during vacation.

Task Sheet

Download our printable Fitness Challenge Task Sheet for your participants to fill out each day. They will record what exercises they did and put a check mark in the completed box if they completed the number of reps on the calendar. There is also a self-assessment section which is great for social emotional learning. Kids will circle the emoji that best describes how they felt after doing the exercises. The notes section is a place where they can jot down anything related to the activities, and also a great place to record their hobbies they did each Saturday this month.
