Slither, Crawl, and Roll!! I teach physical education at two local elementary schools. Both of the schools I teach at have many student in grades K-2. These students are very energetic and wiggly! They love any chance they get to crawl around on the floor.

Because they love to get messy and roll around I know they would love an obstacle course with tunnels of various shapes and sizes. The obstacle course will enable them to work on various locomotor skills and build balance and strength. However, neither school has a single tunnel. Builing these locomotor skills along with balance and strength are crucial for children to learn at a young age because they are the building blocks for later learning. These building blocks will give them the foundation they need to be ready for future sports, and games that they will want to enjoy later in life.

I need 2 tunnel sets with various sizes and shapes of tunnels. This will enable me to make a very large obstacle course where all students can participate at the same time. The students will be able to practice their body awareness and locomotor skills as they go through the obstacle course.

Your help will make it possible for my students to do something that many have them have never been able to do. ALL students will be able to participate at the same time and be able to work on their fitness.
