My Project

Students are at their best when their intrinsic desires motivate their learning. The students just love earning the opportunity to go outside and have fun especially with organized fun activities that involve movement and competition. Our 6th grade students would greatly benefit from a fun game that gets them moving and builds community at the same time. Pickleball is an amazing game that is different and requires little space. We have the perfect opportunity to provide them with the ability to be motivated with their studies and earn fun activity time with this great game.
