Play and Learn

Help me give my students sporting equipment to help build their mental health. These sporting games like the parachute and the ball sets will help to build students self esteem and practice cooperative play.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Duru's classroom raised $374

My Project

My students are very active. They are young and still learning how to manage their feelings and emotions.

These sporting equipments will help to build their mental health.

We can use the parachutes and ball sets to work on teamwork. They can reduce stress with the jump ropes and other games. These games will also work on fine and gross motor skills for my students. Relieving stress will help my students to think better during class. These games will also help to build social connections and teach students about healthy competition and setting goals.
