My Project

In today's society where students are more engaged in playing video games, it is important for schools to offer a physical education program. A lot of my students don't have the resources to participate in after school sports or have the necessary tool to exercise at home. Therefore, I would like to provide them a variety of tools such as, yoga materials, agility items, playground balls and other games and activities to promote brain breaks and physical exercise. These activities also promote communication skills between students and assist with their social emotional development.
