This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My students come from a low-income, high poverty, and high crime area. Those facts are real, but they do not dampen the spirit of learning and hope. The students are striving to break the cycle of underachievement.
We strive for success every day.
We work hard every day. We do not let the facts of reality become a roadblock to reaching our goals. We are on the road to becoming great. With your help, we will not only be on the road to success, but we will be on the expressway to success.
My Project
Cardiovascular endurance is a primary goal of physical education. Jumping rope is a great way to engage in cardiovascular training. It is very simple to teach and learn. But jumping rope is also extremely fun.
The combination of simple of fun is a grand slam in physical education.
When it is simple, students can learn it quickly. When it is fun, students want to engage. That is why this proposal is so vitally important.
Additionally, with 27 jump-ropes each student will have an individual piece of equipment. This is important because when each student has a piece of equipment, discipline issues become fewer.
