My Project

I teach 6th grade ELA and my students are amazing young people. They work so hard during our lessons and give 100%. When we go to recess they walk around and talk or play with amy sports equipment that a student may have brought with them that day. I would love to be able to provide all of 6th grade with sports equipment to play with during their recess time, so they can be healthy in both mind and body. I have seen students that normally wouldn't interact play together when they have equipment to share. I would love to make this a daily thing by providing the equipment for them!
