My Project

I absolutely love how energetic, curious, and eager to learn my PreK-2nd grade students are. They approach every activity with enthusiasm and excitement, always ready to take on new challenges. At this young age, they are developing essential motor skills, coordination, and confidence in their abilities, and I want to provide them with the best opportunities to grow.

The targets I am requesting will make a huge difference in their learning by helping them develop hand-eye coordination, accuracy, and fundamental throwing skills in a fun and engaging way.

Having visual targets to aim for will give them instant feedback and motivation to improve, making skill-building feel like a game rather than a lesson. These targets will also encourage teamwork, perseverance, and spatial awareness—important foundations for both sports and everyday movement.

My goal for this project is to create an engaging environment where students can practice throwing and aiming with purpose, rather than just tossing objects randomly. These resources will allow them to build confidence in their abilities, enhance their focus, and experience the joy of successfully hitting a target. By integrating these targets into our lessons, students will refine their motor skills while having a blast!

What makes my students special is their boundless energy and willingness to try new things. At this developmental stage, they are eager to move, explore, and improve their coordination. They thrive when learning through play, and these targets will turn skill-building into an exciting challenge. Your support will help foster their physical development in a way that feels rewarding and fun, setting them up for future success in sports and movement-based activities.
