My Project

The sports equipment we are requesting will be used during our assigned recess field days at school. They will offer the students more options for play. Additionally, this equipment can really help to improve motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and timing. Along with the very important improvement of social skills, turn-taking, as well as general play skills such as independent play, parallel play, and collaborative play.

During our recess time, students are encouraged to be physically active and engaged with their peers in activities of their choice and this equipment will help offer them more choice and fun!
