My students need P.E. equipment in order to participate in our new P.E. program. These materials include bean bags, activity mats, a tunnel, hula hoops and a parachute!!
"Playing sports can help to motivate a student to improve the kind of organizational skills they also need to succeed academically." Every day my kindergarteners need fun activities to engage them in physical activities since they are home schooled part of the week.
My students are fun, active 5 year olds who need physical activity to get them through our long 6 hour school day.
These materials will help us play organized sports with the them, including fun obstacle courses, exercises and parachute play.
Our school takes home schooled students from all over the county and brings them together for a couple of days a week on our campus. These students thrive on our campus because they love the social interaction with peers. I need these materials so I can play fun P.E. activities with them while getting them to participate in physical activity.
My Project
Physical activity is crucial for young minds. Not only will they be exercising during our school day, but exercising leads to an open mind. These fun activities will allow them to become better learners who can sit and listen to academic instruction. In the long run, they will become students who are more prepared for learning.
This project will change my students' lives because it will prepare them to play with peers while also creating a well-rounded student whose brain is ready for learning every day.
It will teach them how to work as a team with their peers and it will provide an opportunity to talk about fairness and teamwork.
