Game, Set, Pickleball: a New Way to Get Active

Help me give my students sports equipment to explore a new sport, along with PBIS supports to keep them motivated and engaged.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Anderson's classroom raised $700

This project is fully funded

My Project

This project will provide my students with pickleball and volleyball equipment, along with PBIS supports, to promote teamwork, physical activity, and positive behavior.

These items will create opportunities for students to build communication, resilience, and leadership skills while staying active and engaged.

The jumbo volleyball and the adjustable net will provided differentiated instruction to meet the various needs of my students. The PBIS supports, such as the fidgets and comfort/support animals will help keep students motivated and focused.

My goal is to foster a healthy, inclusive environment where students can discover new interests, develop sportsmanship, and celebrate their achievements. What makes my students special is their enthusiasm for learning and their willingness to support one another, both in the classroom and on the court.
