My Students

I work with students in Pre-K through 5th Grade. My students enjoy new activities and new ideas that keep the curriculum fresh. These students need to be exposed to as many different skills and life long active activities as they can. My goal is to create units of interest that can create an environment that supports all students.

PE can only be successful if students are interested and motivated to try their hardest.

That is why it's my job to get the equipment that can continue to grab their attention and create excitement around new games and new activities. They deserve the best I can provide and my support in getting the best materials each and every year.

My Project

I continue to build my classroom to be as great as it can be. I use my bulletin board for creating challenges for my students and I need new dodge balls to replace the broken and ripped ones I currently have. I use these for many throwing games. I also need more jerseys to help replace the ripped ones we are currently using. The scooter is for my students with special needs who need a bigger scooter to sit on.

It is my job to create the best curriculum for my students and to do this, it takes equipment to make it functional and fun.

My students deserve the best and these few items will certainly help. They are excited to be active and creating new challenges and games make it even better. All of these items are essential to bringing back units or supporting new ones and they will certainly be used throughout the year and years to come.
