My students are like any other elementary students full of energy! The energy needs to be released. It is my responsibility and privilege to help develop physically literate children who have the knowledge, skills, and confidence to enjoy a lifetime of physical activity.
Unfortunately, during this global pandemic, I am not allowed to let the students drink from the drinking fountains because of fears of spreading germs during these times.
I have been buying bottled water bottles for the students. I would love to be able to give them cold bottles of water after getting them physically active.
I teach at a school that up until last year was notorious for having a negative reputation. Still, we are striving to completely rebuild our track record! This starts with the students. They come to school every day with the willingness to learn and listen. My students are always eager to learn new skills and concepts to improve their overall health and wellness!
My Project
This project will help me ensure that every student gets a cold bottle of water after P.E. Many of them do not bring water bottles with them to school and they are not allowed to drink out of the water fountains because of the COVID Pandemic.
Many of them do not even have water bottles.
I personally have bought water bottles for all the students and would love to be able to give them a cold bottle of water when they are leaving my gym to go back to their home room.
