Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students are eager and energetic. They love to move around, work together and encourage each other to be better. After being away from each other for 18 months, I know they are ready to see each other and work.

My Project

We have been locked down for 18 months due to Covid. This will give students way back to physical health, as well as social emotional health.

While reuniting in Physical Education classes, this will give students an opportunity to use medicine balls, weights, resistance bands while building a sense of self confidence.

This will also allows use to store them safely on racks and in carts.

Across the country , we've allowed them to play video games and hang on their phones long enough. Let's get back to the new normal.
