My Project

This year we want our students to work on improving their hand eye coordination and striking skills. These skills will not only benefit them in PE class, but they will benefit them for the rest of their lives.

To help the students work on their striking skills we are trying to make our badminton unit a long unit in our classes.

We want our students to learn a new game that they will be able to play the rest of their lives.

We have done a badminton unit before but several of the rackets are very broken and old. The birdies have taken a beating. This equipment will allow the students to enjoy and participate in this sport.

This equipment will benefit several students in multiple grades each semester.
