Mr. Reed from Byron Center MI is requesting sports & exercise equipment through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

New Opportunities for Active Learners

Help me give my students new opportunities in physical education class. Lacrosse continues to become a growing sport/opportunity in our community and Cup Stacking is great for individuals and groups, large spaces and small.

My Students

My students are energetic and active. I have been blown away by how much my students enjoy participating in physical education class, but also love how much they continually engage in physical activity outside of school. This may be through athletics or just playing with friends in their neighborhoods. I love it when they discuss how they use our activities from school when playing at home. My goal is to keep that inspiration going by constantly introducing them to new activities.

My Project

Addressing physical education standards by introducing new equipment and new activities to students.

Lacrosse is a growing sport and is becoming more available for youth in our community.

This equipment would allow our students to experience this exciting sport in a safe, learning environment.

Cup Stacking is an exciting individual and team sport that promotes hand-eye coordination, ambidexterity, quickness and concentration. Cup Stacking promotes learning by getting students to use both sides of their bodies and brains. The best part about Cup Stacking is the fact that it can be done in a small space (classroom) or large space (gym).
