My Project
My scholars need to see start hearing verbal encouragement from each other during recess as well as academically when they are in the classroom. I have an incredible group of grade 4 students who strive to help each other during my math classes. I'd like to encourage them to continue to help each other by showing them how to play pickleball, 4 students in groups of two at a time.
A lot of communication and collaboration can be taught when playing a sport such as pickleball during recess and I believe a sport like pickleball would help bring out words of encouragement within the grade 4 students.
Pickleball is a team work sport. This is an easy game to bring out informal encouragement while they all learn to play a sport that is becoming popular within younger age groups. This will also give them something to look forward to doing and learning during recess time for those that need ideas.
This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
