My Students

Athletics have proven to be an important part of almost every school. As an athlete, each goes in search of individual strengths and weaknesses. As an elementary school, we need activities to help prepare students for an athletic program and the importance of physical health programs.

Our elementary school has a little over 500 students who love interactive sports activities.

As a new PE teacher in the school, I would love for my students to have more PE equipment to implement sporting activities. Our school definitely is in need of some indoor and outdoor equipment. The students are eager to play sports at class levels. With the help of others, I am hoping to bring some productive PE equipment their way.

My Project

As an athlete, each goes in search of individual strengths and weaknesses. Sports and games offer more than playing. It offers a platform for sports, as well as discipline, the importance of rules, fair play and more. For outdoor activities, I could use GenMove balls. I recently received the goals, but now I am in need of thirty GenMove Balls. It could help my children to improve body awareness, balance, and spatial relationships. It would be used for many types of PE games and activities. According to the site, it says, "With this versatile and low-cost solution, you can expand the quantity and quality of your physical activities in PE, After School, or Early Childhood programs. Designed for grades K - 12." I know this would benefit all my students. All in all, this would be a great solution for large groups with my PE students.

As an elementary school, we need activities to help prepare students for an athletic program and the importance of physical health programs.

Receiving these balls would be a great start for my program. My job as a PE and health teacher lies with promoting the importance of Physical Education in schools. My students and I could use your help in getting 30 GenMove balls to embrace the importance of sports and physical education in our elementary school. Would you consider helping us?
