WE ARE BALANCED!

Help me give my students a balance dome to help develop agility and coordination.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Odom's classroom raised $213

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students truly understand the importance of physical activity. They look forward to physical education class each day and they put forth a tremendous amount of energy while in class. They share, take turns and help each other out while learning the basics of sports. They live in a low-income school district but that doesn't stop them from being the best that they can be. They love learning about new sports and they are always willing to try new things.

My Project

This balance dome will make such a tremendous difference in the lives of all of my students in physical education. This dome will help develop agility while also developing speed and coordination. This dome will be used in all of our small-group activities and it will also be used during field day and family fun day.

We love being physical!

We love Physical Education! We love to share what we have learned regarding physical agility and this project will help us meet this challenge.

We appreciate any support. We are truly grateful nd appreciative for any support that you can give!
