Be AmBiDeXtRoUs ... SPEED STACK FAST

My students need the speed stacks so EVERY child can have their own set to practice. The timers will allow students to keep track of their growth and improvement with each stack sequence.

My Students

My students come from varied backgrounds with different levels of previous knowledge and motivation. They are diverse in culture and ethnicity and full of energy and enthusiasm to learn new things. My students are creative and excited to improve their skills and continue to display strong work ethics.

As a school we are 40% free and reduced lunch.

Many students have never seen or experienced speed stacks which is why I want to expose them to this great activity that can be done individually or with friends.

My Project

The donations from this project will allow EVERY child to participate and work independently to improve fine motor skills. Regardless of background or ability, all students can participate.

The speed stacks promote both left and right brain learning and help students practice organization and routine.

The pattern and order helps improve a child's ambidexterity. Students can practice at home and encourage reading because of the similar order grouping. Students are developing new brain patterns and crossing the mid line of their body which can improve academic achievement throughout the school day.

Speed stacks help build self-esteem and the timers can be a visual reference for student growth. Students will learn a range of stacks from 3 to 6 to 10 and work toward completing the cycle. Speed stacks are a great at home and family activity for the most athletic or non-athletic child. Speed stacks are fun and challenging and can build a child's body, brain and spirit.
