Our school is a community where children learn academics in and through the arts. The students participate in theater/drama, dance, art, and music. Our students have the opportunity to learn through the arts from preschool all the way to 8th grade in our dual-campus setting.
Our school population is very diverse culturally, economically, and racially.
The families at our school speak a multitude of languages and come to us with a multitude of abilities and learning styles.
Our school is a unique environment where every adult meets every child where they are at emotionally, academically, and socially.
My Project
These materials will help our Global Arts Plus (Formerly Linwood Monroe Arts Plus) students in grades Pre-K to 4th grade have a variety of choices during outdoor recess time. These materials will provide all students with opportunities for movement and engagement and will better prepare them for the learning that they are required to participate in back in the classroom. It will also allow for some indoor recess choices in the gym as well in the case of bad weather.
The materials will give the students at our school a variety of collaborative opportunities to engage with one another, problem solve, and to get their bodies moving.
There are a variety of choices to reach the interests of all students. Some activities that students will be able to choose are flag football, soccer, basketball, hopscotch, four square, kickball, jump rope, chalk drawings, hula hoop, obstacle courses, etc.
Students will work on showing and using their CARES (Cooperation, Assertion, Responsibility, Empathy, and Self-Control) with these materials.
Research supports that students need physical movement to increase their learning stamina. These materials will provide the opportunity for release of energy in a safe, productive, cooperative, and engaging way.
