Help me give my students with balance, coordination, and creativity. The bean bags are a a great way to teach students various activities and skills but also can help in teaching health lessons with fun activities.
I teach elementary physical education which consists of first through fourth graders. I see eight classes each day and the classes are on a three-day rotation with art and music. In total, I have 23 classes. Some years there are more students.
My Project
Scooters in PE are a favorite amongst the students. Many of the scooters the school has had for more than 15 years and some are starting to wear and tear more than others. New scooters would be great to replace the older, broken scooters. In some classes that are larger, we have to get creative because there are not always enough for everyone.
The bean bags are assorted food items that could help teach My Plate via games and fun activities.
Children learn best through play. Using bean bags with food group items on them will increase their chances of retaining the information!
More than half of students from low‑income households
