My Project

The physical education parachute will allow students to play some of their favorite games including popcorn with the balls on top. The scooter will allow students to compete in games such as obstacle courses. The hula hoops will teach students a fun way of exercising that can be done at home or school. The jump ropes will allow students to compete and battle with each other while getting a healthy workout. The LED Bluetooth speaker will be used during gym and field day for students to enjoy class while listening to some of their favorite songs.
