Physical Fitness

Help me give my students the opportunity to engage in physical activities during recess.

My Project

Increasing physical fitness during recess will allow our students to engage in fun meaningful, team building sports during recess. They will have the opportunity to play kickball, volleyball and football with their classmates. Students will learn how to work with a team. Physical activity has been shown to stimulate chemicals in the brain that make you feel better.

Playing sports regularly improves children's overall emotional wellbeing.

Research shows a link between playing sport and self-esteem in children. Having the support of a team, will allow students to be more successful.
