FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Williams's classroom raised $309

My Project

The students in my class are full of energy and enthusiasm. They come from various cultures, speak different languages and many of their families are struggling economically. They attend a culturally diverse school where seventy percent of the students receive a free or reduced-price lunch in the state of Washington.

Aside from the cultural and economic differences in our student population, you'll find that our amazing students are eager to learn and are trying to build successful lives that will be happy and productive.

Students will use the jump ropes to better their movement skills which they need for any other sport they will pursue later on. They are working on improving their aerobic fitness, improving their health and setting goals for their life. This is not only about having fun in fitness class but about implementing a lifestyle that includes lots of physical activity and that helps you to stay in shape.

A simple tool that can help my students be active, become a better athlete, enjoy physical activity, and for some, it's that extra motivation they need to make it through the rest of their school day.
