My Project

Revitalize our recess. Each day we go outside for 30 minutes or more to have recess. We have close to 100 students and two playground apparatuses. We usually split our classes into four groups and some of us play on the field or blacktop. These are wide open spaces that are great for running.

We would love to make recess an even more enjoyable time with balls and ropes.

It would also be great to have something to carry the things in to and from the playground area. As the kids say...Let's go!
