Help me give my students a chance to learn to balance themselves. My students are not very mobile the Little Dynamo | Balance Stepping Stones for Kids would help them improve basic skills.
I have been teaching for several years, my career has been with special needs students. I was asked to teach physical education to special education students last year, and I jumped at the opportunity. I feel that students need to get up and move as much as possible and I want to help them to become more physically active. I work in a limited space and need to have equipment that can go up and down quickly to be stored.
My Project
My students have low fine and gross motor skills. I teach them movement 5 days a week. We are working on different ways to move which they have been doing very will with. We now want to work on balancing. I choose several different types of balancing supplies specifically the Little Dynamo | Balance Stepping Stones for Kids, I will use this to create different patterns for them to follow.
Image by the end of the school year students would had difficulty walking can now jump, skip and walk in a straight line with no assistance.
