My Project

Our students are adjusting to a playground with very little recess equipment. As their PE teacher, I want to help supply them with ample equipment for them to use at recess. With that being said, we need somewhere to store it that is easily accessible to all the students.

We also want to have equipment for them to use when they are stuck inside for recess.

The portable basketball goals will give them a jump start with inside recess equipment.

The portable speaker will help me reach all my students without straining my voice! The portable air pump will solve the ongoing battle of flat balls!

Help me, help them!!
