My Project

As the World Cup is captivating the attention all around the world, my students have inquired on learning the skills of soccer. Their excitement to learn this fun sport has encouraged me to ask for help so that they can learn appropriately. Our equipment is not functionable anymore, from wear and tear, since bought over 15 years ago. We have not been able to teach soccer skills since Covid. They need soccer balls that have a smooth service, that do not go flat. The soccer balls we have right now have picks and tears, which scratches the students. They deflate quickly. Our soccer goal is broken, so we have been using cones.

Students also enjoy playing kick ball and 4 square, as well as soccer.

The kick balls will not hold air at all. The equipment will be used in several learning activities in my class. Thank you for taking the time to consider donating to this project.
