My Project

All of our students want to play at least once in their lives. Our classes strive for excellence but understand the value of physical activity. In class the soccer balls will provide the opportunity for the kids to play during break comfortably, many at a time. This helps them with the basic idea of soccer, keeps them moving, and it also helps to build the self-esteem that they need.

Soccer balls are great for the kids because they can practice on their own, get comfortable and then play with the other students.

As they progress, they will be able to do team and independent work to build skills and to be able to practice socialization. Students will be able to take these skills with us when they move on and become valued members of society. Students a chance to play soccer during breaks without sensory being a member of an organized team. They can control the amount of effort given while they play, and continue to practice with or without the others. This will enhance the environment not only in the classroom, but on the school grounds as well.
