PE Field Day for FSC (Fully Self-Contained Students)

Help me give my students who have special need, opportunities to do physical activities

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Apina's classroom raised $988

This project is fully funded

My Project

My goal is to provide a Field Day which would involve students with special needs to participate in a variety of physical fitness type of activities in physical education class.

The Field day activities would include using basic motor skills such as:

- Hand/Eye coordination (Egg on a spoon race)

-Rolling a ball (Bowling Activity)

-Jumping (Sack race)

-Running (relay races)

-Balance (stepping stones from point A to B)

Though there are only 5 students in this particular fully self-contained class, the needs of these students range with autism, delayed response, physical disabilities, non-verbal,etc., however; since working with these students, they are so excited in participating in pe class when it comes to different types of activities. Therefore; I feel very fortunate to work with these students for the last 2 years, but it does require different types of manipulatives and equipment. That is why we are seeking for ways to build our PE program for these fully self-contained students.
