Creating Wellness Habits

Help me give my students new equipment to teach them different ways to be active and take care of themselves.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. McKee's classroom raised $2,711

This project is fully funded

My Project

My goal for this project is to expose students to wellness opportunities through fitness. Our students would love and need the opportunity to learn about different ways to be active for both the body and mind.

We would like to purchase a class set of yoga mats so that all of our students can participate at once and be comfortable on their own mat.

We would try to do this once a week to create a habit of taking time to be mindful and stretch every week. We would also like to purchase fitness equipment like weights and deadlift bars to expand our students knowledge of equipment and ways to exercise.

Overall we would like our students to learn about wellness in ways that can be meaningful when they are out of school.
