My Project

Think Education? Think reading, writing, math, science and history. However, for many students, recess is the best time of the day.

Many are surprised the learning that occurs at recess.

Children with little English shine when playing soccer and showing off fancy footwork. Others display their football skills through spirals and catches. These students return to the classroom confident and ready to tackle learning.

In a time where technology, television and video games surround children , these recess supplies will increase physical exercise, social skills and attention in the classroom.
