My students love our ball handling lessons. Students in my Physical Educaiton classes like to learn to dribble, bounce and catch. My school does not have enough playground balls to give each student their own individual ball.
Having their own individual playground ball would help my students build their confidence, improve their focus, improve their social skills, as well as improve their motor skills.
In addition, having their own individual playground ball will help encourage mindfulness as well as reduce stress. Having that individual playground ball will also help encourage creativity.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
