My Project

Recess is very beneficial for students. Recess provides opportunities for socialization, teamwork, and practice with conflict-resolution skills. Students are spending more time on technology devices and are struggling with the previously mentioned skills.

What is a better way to help build upon these skills than by providing fun engaging activities where students work with one another to have a common goal?

Please consider donating toward our project which will provide recess equipment to fifth-grade students so they can build upon skills needed in life to succeed. Your donation will go toward outdoor equipment such as kickballs, soccer balls, bean bag toss, jump ropes and other meaningful outdoor games.
