My Project

Our students love to play basketball! We need basketball hoops that are portable, and more age appropriate, so that they can have more success when learning the skills needed to play basketball.

These portable 4' basketball hoops will allow our kindergarten through second grade students to have more success when learning how to make a basketball shot.

Our physical education classes also need scrimmage vests and cones to help differentiate teams/groups, as well as create boundaries, for our students to practice dribbling and shooting when using these basketball hoops.

Thank you for your support in creating a more successful learning environment for our students in physical education class!
