Balance, Fitness, and Focused Minds

My students need movement scarves, balance pods, a ring toss game and Fitness Fun for Kids Movement CD in order to help develop their bodies and minds during recess time.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bullard's classroom raised $201

This project is fully funded

My Students

My school is Title I and located in a small North Carolina town. It has a diverse population in which the majority of the students are economically disadvantaged. Almost half of my students are also learning English as their second language. My students are full of enthusiasm about learning but often come to school without the necessary tools. As their teacher, I want to provide them with all of the resources they need in order to learn and be successful.

My Project

Children need to have multiple opportunities to move around each day. In order to get my students moving, I would like to provide them with some new fitness equipment and teach them some fun ways to exercise.

This fitness equipment will provide my students with the gross motor stimulation they need, which in turn, will enhance their ability to focus their attention on learning.

Before playing any sport, you need to stretch and do some cardio exercises to warm up. The Fitness Fun for Kids Movement CD and movement scarves will help make exercising more fun. The ring toss game will help the students develop eye-hand coordination which is important when playing many different types of sports. The Balance Pods will be used for developing inner core strength, coordination and balance. The best part is that the students will be having fun while they exercise.
