Battle of the Yard Games

Help me give my students an opportunity to play some outdoor yard games.

FULLY FUNDED! Coach Swegles's classroom raised $263

This project is fully funded

My Project

I want to create a PE unit of yard games. I would like to teach my students the fun games you can play in the backyard, at the beach, camping and other fun outdoor places. These are super fun game that I can expose my students too and then hopefully they can take the experience back home and encourage their families to play them too.

These are fun games that people of all ages can play.

The goal is to teach my students some new fun games and then use that to encourage them to try them out with their families and create some new and fun memories. It is also a great games that can be used when we go on field trips.
