My Project
Please help me with obtaining a set of classroom scooters for our elementary students along with a set of larger scooters for our middle school students to use when they are in need of a brain break during the school day. Scooters are a fun and exciting way to give students an outlet to engage in movement and physical activity during the school day.
The Alliance for a Healthier Generation shares, "All youth need 60 minutes of physical activity every day to grow up healthy."
The Alliance for a Healthier Generation also shares, "Research shows that active kids learn better so it’s essential to create a learning environment that encourages and supports movement before, during, and after school."
The scooters are also a way to help support mental health and provide students with an outlet if they feel dysregulated and need some time and space to regain focus during the school day.
Funding a set of scooters for students to use during the school day is a great way to help us incorporate movement inside our school building where there is not a lot of space available outside of our school building. This set of scooters can also be shared with our after school program for students to enjoy!
