Basketball Is Fun Learning Time!

My students need 2 beginner basketball hoops to help them with their teamwork, trust, and coordination skills.

HELP! My first grade students are in need of new beginner basketball portable hoops. They are learning how to play basketball, but the old basketball hoops can not be salvaged. I teach a group of active and high energy first grade students in the Chinatown area each year. About 90% of the students qualify for the free/reduce lunch program and about 80 % of the students are English language learners. My students need to exercise, stretch, and learn how to cooperate with one another during their recess time. My school had purchased beginner basketball portable hoops 5 years ago. They had been repaired and soldered 3 times due to the daily usage by all the kindergartens and first graders. Through this activity all the students learn how to shoot and improve their coordination skills(eye/hand).They also learn to cooperate,share,and help one another. Above all they learn the meaning of team work and trust. Due to the present school's budget,even this small request is not approved. With your generous donation, my students, all the kindergartens,and first graders will be able to exercise,learn skills,and have fun through the game of BASKETBALL. Please make this a reality for all of my students. Thank you in advance for your donation.
