My Project

Help my students enhance their interactions with classmates through robust experiences and equipment. Recess is a vital time for students to improve attention, reduce disruptive behavior, and increase social skills. Having new recess equipment will help promote life long wellness, movement and unforgettable memories in my students.

Recess Palooza will give students a wide variety of choice in activities that will promote socialization, teamwork, and socialization.

What's more beautiful than outside play? Meeting new friends and building new friendships is what recess was made for. Let the fun begin with the spectrum of play.
