My Students

I am blessed to teach K-3 Physical Education at our building. I have almost 250 AMAZING and energetic students that I teach 2-3 times per week.

Their smiles, laugher, and willingness to learn are contagious and I want to give them a physical education program that challenges them and teach them activities in which they can utilize for a lifetime.

My Project

I am the Physical Education teacher of almost 250 amazing, fun, and energetic students! My goal is to have a jump rope and a frisbee in every students hand for our rope jumping unit and our frisbee golf unit! Why in every child's hand? Just incase we go back to remote learning, I want my students to be able to take this home with them to continue to build their skills there. I can teach a rope jumping or frisbee from anywhere. However, not all of my students have a jump rope or a frisbee at home. With your help - they will!
