My Project

The recess equipment I am requesting—chalk, hula hoops, balls, jump ropes, and games—will make a meaningful difference in my students' learning by promoting physical activity, social interaction, and cooperative play.

These items will help students develop important motor skills, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities while encouraging them to stay active and engaged during recess.

My goal is to create an inclusive and dynamic play environment where all students can participate, build friendships, and develop lifelong healthy habits. What makes my students special is their enthusiasm, creativity, and eagerness to learn through play. By providing them with the right tools, I can support their overall well-being and ensure recess is a time for both fun and growth.
