Let’s Get Physical!

Help me give my students more fun options to use during their outdoor brain break time!

My Project

Physical activity is such a must in life! Especially for middle schoolers who have a lot of energy! Often times too much energy leads to distractions in the classroom. Therefore, we have built-in outside brain break time to give students a chance to give their brains a break and get in some physical activity. This project is meant to help fund our options of various sporting equipment to appeal to a diverse student population. The goal is that students find something that they like to do and perhaps even learn something new!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
