Get Fit & Have Fun!

Help me give my students the opportunity to get fit and have fun using Our-O-Hoops, dodgeballs, and basketballs.

My Project

Help me give our students the opportunity to have centered lesson plans that promote health and wellness, that are still engaging and fun. Our students are adventurous, curious, and really looking for more materials to help them be able to explore. These materials such as the hula hoops and soft rubber balls will be used for various activities and lessons, whether that is space tag with the hula hoops or kickball with the soft rubber balls. The options for all of these materials are endless and thanks to generous donations

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
