Mrs. Hern from Atkins AR is requesting sports & exercise equipment through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Upper and Lower Body Strength

Help me give my students the equipment necessary to be physically active. These scooters allow them to use both upper and lower body strength while having fun at the same time.

My Project

Many students are inactive unless in physical education class. Having more equipment will allow them to participate more. With these scooters, everyone will have a chance to be a part of something. It will strengthen both their upper and lower body.

This will help out the non-athletes that still like playing and having fun.

Not every student is equally athletic and competitive. I like to play a variety of games that allows everyone to be involved.

I hope that this will also lower the percentage of obesity in our district. The more active they are, the better life style they will live.
