My Project

My class and my three collaborators support 128 or more students in physical education and social-emotional learning. Our students come from all over the map in the background, socio-economic status, and ability level. One thing that brings us all together is our mental and physical well-being.

Our kids deserve the best PE and SEL lessons they can get.

This project will contact us about what we need to create those lessons. From resistance bands to help support our body weight exercises, Jenga towers to create a new fitness workout, and SEL books and cards to teach coping skills and mindfulness. My team and I are excited to get started helping our students.
