Help me give my students a fold and go trampoline, a safe way to move their bodies at school even when we cannot go outside due to the weather.

My Students
My 4 and 5-year-old students teach me every day. They are happy to discover things on their own with manipulatives, dramatic play, and self-correcting learning games and puzzles. Large and small group learning, large motor activities, sensory stations, and music are integrated into our daily schedule to help children learn.
We use hands-on learning materials that promote learning through discovery.
Having materials that students can use to build and explore helps students build their understanding of the world around them. We provide opportunities for students to practice social-emotional learning while using materials together to pretend about real-life experiences.
Our program is located in a public school that has preschool through fifth-grade students. All of our preschool students are eligible for educational benefits because our program is income-based. We have a full-service staff who help families with a variety of things such as locating stable housing. All of our families have chosen to enroll their children in our full-day program so that they are ready for Kindergarten next year.
My Project
Our preschool students can focus better once they have been able to move their bodies. We will use this trampoline daily and cannot wait for our students to use their energy in a positive way by jumping when they have extra energy. We are able to use a similar trampoline when we are able to go to our Motor Room but that is not every day.
Every day the weather cooperates we go outside but since the weather in Minnesota does not always cooperate, having indoor options for exercise is awesome!
Students will be able to use this trampoline when they can tell their bodies needs to move. Having something for students to do and being able to have them be independent in making that choice is something that helps our students become ready for kindergarten.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
