I teach in a Title One School in beautiful North Carolina. I am excited to be the PE teacher for this great school. My job is to support the curriculum of the teachers and promote healthy lifestyles. Our school has wonderful students but not very much money.

I would like to help my science teachers teach their energy units through physical education. I have found a great way to teach potential and kinetic energy and Newton's Law using various sizes of rubber balls. My students are excited about this but right now I only have a few materials.

With the various assortment of rubber balls, I will be able to engage all of my students in energy stations around the gym. While teaching science, I will also be showing my students how to stay healthy.

Would you please help me integrate physical education and science through this wonderful proposal? My students will grasp the concept of force and motion while having LOTS of fun. Thank you for your consideration of this project.
