Non Fiction: Let's Move

 " Lets Move" is the name of Michelle Obama`s new campaign to decrease obesity rates in young kids. In the past year obesity rates in children have increased a lot. In fact in Chicago 6,000 children have to increase physical education. Many kids are overweight and so for Michelle Obama`s first anniversary for " Lets Move" she wants to have kids inspired and see the importance of being healthy and active. For inspiration Ms. Obama wants to make and insiring film and to keep them healthy is an increase in physical education in schools. Ms. Obama says that " I need kids in my life. They keep me focused; they keep me motivated.

   A national tour of Michelle Obama`s Let`s Move campaign is currently being planned out and in the process of getting to as many schools as possible. Ms. Obama`s goal is to make loosing weight as easy and fun as possible. To help this be possible Ms. Obama has sponsors like Nike and other companies to found money for new courts and places to move. Not all people can make this possible for their kids so Ms. Obama plans to get as many founds to grant these programs to those kids.

   After reading this article it has made me aware of how alert you need to be about your weight. A brighter future also means a healthier future and that's exactly what many parents want for their children. Having awareness in school and having a leader such as Ms. Obama should inspire most kids. I think that Ms. Obama is doing more than most leaders and taking a big stand for children in the U.S. Helping families who cant afford programs like this for these kids is really heart warming and is something worth fighting for. If a good future isn't in the reach of these children than what is their future? This campagain and program should flourish and be heard a lot more
