Ready, Set Go!

Help me give my students stop watches so that we can improve our times in running club by being able to monitor our student's progress.

My Project

We don't have enough stop watches to time the kids for our running club. We've been borrowing stop watches to do this and would like our own so we can have more efficient practices. The best thing about our running club is that it attracts the interest of so many students is the fact that anyone who wants to participate can participate. Nobody is cut from the running club. The running club has more student participation than any other school club. Most of the competition is not necessarily against other students, but against their own personal record. In order for students to experience this success, they must have equipment they can practice on regularly and at their convenience. If we have access to our own stop watches, students will have this opportunity to practice better and easier. This will help students achieve personal success and will in turn breed more success.

We really need stop watches to measure the success of our running club runners.
