Students will benefit through participating in organized sports with the balls, jump ropes, hoops and other equipment. Developing a quality fitness program to engage students in fun and enjoyable sporting activities will increase their desire to live healthy lives into the future. Learning to cooperate, working towards common goals while having fun playing sports will develop essential life skills. Currently we have no PE equipment; our students currently play every version of tag possible, and they do not complain, they run, play and have fun making the most of their time outdoors. The PE equipment will allow us to incorporate team building, develop communication skills, instill a bit of competitive collaboration towards common goals within small groups all while establishing and working towards individual attainment of personal goals. Coaching students to learn cooperative strategies while having fun and being physically active will benefit students throughout their lives. Students will see immediate growth in their flexibility, muscular strength, and cardiovascular endurance. This translates towards greater development of motor skills, allowing for safe, successful and fulfilling participation in physical activities. Elementary age students will grow and develop their love of sports carrying healthy habits through middle school and into high school. By learning the foundations of teamwork now they will achieve greater physical fitness as well as attain increased academic achievements within their schooling.
