My Project

These 2 sets of 24 high quality basketballs will benefit every one of the students at my school during our basketball unit in physical education class. The basketball's have the texture and feel of the one's used by professional basketball players, but at smaller size's. The 24 size-4 multi-colored basketball's are perfect for my Kindergarten - Grade 2 students, and the 24 size-5 normal-colored basketball's are perfect for my Grade 3 - Grade 5 students. The basketball's, along with the 24 poly spot's are used in all of the ball-handling, dribbling, and shooting drills and games student's play during the unit, and for other activities in the gym!
