Tiny Hands

Help me give my students the opporutnity to use age appropriate equipment when learning about basketball.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Meyer's classroom raised $1,298

This project is fully funded

My Project

Every December, our music teacher and I pair up for our yearly Winter assembly. We showcase basketball skills and nutcracker/winter music. Students get the chance to show their FAMILIES their basketball skills through a nutcracker/winter choreographed routine.

For our yonger students, Pre-K to 2nd grade, we don't have the correct size of ball for their TINY HANDS to dribble, catch and hold.

If we recieve enough donors for this project, our TINNEST hands will have the opprotunity to really showcase their skills. Wouldn't it be nice not to be scared of a giant basketball coming up from the ground? YES IT WOULD!
