Create Your Workout: Empowering Students to Stay Active

Help me give my students this fitness deck to create fun, varied workouts that build strength, endurance, and confidence through customized exercise routines.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stefansic's classroom raised $1,059

My Project

I love my students’ enthusiasm, resilience, and creativity. Each day, they bring a unique energy to class and show a genuine desire to learn and improve. They are at an age where developing independence and self-confidence is crucial, and I am inspired by how they rise to challenges when given the right tools and guidance.

These fitness decks will be invaluable in helping them take ownership of their own fitness journeys.

With 50 different exercise cards to mix and match, students can design personalized workouts that meet their individual needs and interests. This opportunity encourages them to think critically about their health and fitness, fostering decision-making skills and self-motivation.

By learning how to create balanced routines and circuits, students not only engage fully in class but also gain practical skills that will transfer beyond school. They will be better equipped to maintain an active lifestyle on their own, making healthy choices long after they leave the classroom.

In a community where many students lack access to structured fitness opportunities outside of school, this resource becomes even more vital. It supports their physical health, builds confidence, and nurtures lifelong habits that contribute to their overall well-being and success.
