My Students

I teach Physical Education and Health to an amazing group of students K-6th grade in a very small district. We added a home-link program in 2003 which is part of our district and allows students resources and support to have off-site learning experiences. The students enrolled in the Home-Link Program use our gym and PE equipment as well. Approximately 110 students receive PE/Health in our public school building and approximately 40 students from the Home-Link Program access our gym and equipment throughout the year.

The students I get the pleasure of serving love to be challenged and set personal goals for fitness and health.

They are always eager to learn new skills they can use now and for the rest of their lives. They work hard and encourage each other to do their best!

Over 70% of our students receive free or reduced rate lunch benefits as a result of having a low family income. Students come to us with a wide range of abilities, interests and family backgrounds. Many of our students struggle with attendance. As of Dec., only 56.25% of our students were considered regular attendees (95% or greater attendance record).

My Project

For this project I am requesting 3 items I would love to add to enhance the learning and activities in our Physical Education program!

Balance is an essential skill for children to build up to more complex motor movements.

Balancing stepping stones would be an excellent tool for my Kindergarten-Second grade children for practicing this skill!

Next, an agility ladder would be a great addition for my older students to practice footwork and speed. This could be used for any fitness station and for units such as flag football, basketball and soccer.

Last, the scarves requested can be used in multiple ways for my younger students. They are a great lead up for catching, throwing and juggling larger and heavier objects (also a great tool for students with special needs). Scarves can also be used for creative movement and dance!
