Our school is an elementary (Pre-K - 5th grade) Title I school in a diverse area. Our students come from low-income families and rarely have the opportunity to experience much outside of their neighborhood. We service ESL (English Second Language) and hearing impaired students as well as our regular and special education students. This is what makes our school unique!
Our K-5 students love PE class!
At our school, each grade level receives PE instruction daily for 45 minutes. Our students are eager to learn and I am eager to provide my students with this opportunity! Our students look forward to PE and being able to play and socialize in a healthy and fun way!
The biggest hurdle for our PE department is we do not have a gym to store equipment or for our students to play activities in. Our students are outside in the elements (hot or cold) to play activities/games. During rainy days, our students have to stay in the classroom.
I believe that if these students received the proper equipment it would make their PE class a better place to learn while they are having fun!
My Project
Frisbee is a long forgotten sport that not many students know about. We would like the opportunity to bring back the sport of frisbee to our PE classes. By having this equipemnt it will allow us to teach students how to properly throw a frisbee to another student or at a target. This equipment will also allow our students to have fun while learning how to throw with opposition and direction. The sport of Frisbee can be played by everyone. Students do not have to be atlethic to throw a frisbee. This will help our not so atlethic students feel confident while learning how to throw.
