My Students

My students are elementary students who attend a school in a rural community. They come from a variety of backgrounds and each has a unique way of making each day of teaching rewarding.

My students have a range of learning and emotional disabilities and learn best by using hands-on activities and technology.

They have interests ranging from dancing, sports, animals, and video games to participating in the school activities. They love coming to school and have a passion for learning!

My Project

My students have been quarantined indoors for months. They lack resources for exercise and wellness at home and, as a result, are becoming unfit and unhealthy and, therefore, unable to work to their potential. We incorporate fitness with our mindfulness practices to teach strategies to control anger and frustration. With this new equipment, they will increase their cardiovascular fitness and have fun with their family members while at home. We cannot change these difficult circumstances, but we can make it more fun. A little bit will go a long way!
