Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My students are in need of convenience and full attention. They are working on being more active and competing over who is the most athletic during fitness testing. In order to give my students hands-on experience, I need to be able to demonstrate proper push-ups, sit-ups, and pull-ups among other exercises to help them achieve their health goals.

I want them to have energy and a driven mindset about what life could be like when they thrive in sports.

This iPad will allow me to be able to show them what sports and athletes they could view to give them a better understanding as well as show videos of Olympians who have accomplished goals that may not have crossed their minds. Also, I will be able to calculate their stats so that they could keep a record of how they have progressed. I want this generation of children to be the upcoming generation of change.
