Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Intervention
Sit-to-stand desks (Ergotron LearnFit®) will replace standard desks. In addition, meeting with parents and teacher's training will be conducted in order to support behavior change.
Intervention
Multi-level intervention focused on school environment (furniture) will be conducted.
Device: Sit-to-stand desks (Ergotron LearnFit®); Device: (Actigraph, Pensacola, FL, USA); Device: ActivPALTM .
Control
Control classroom will maintain their routine in sitting desks.
