During this quarter we are working on throwing and catching and we plan on using every bucket that was donated to us. The buckets will serve a targets or goals in which they will be throwing different items into. The buckets will be lined up similar to carnival games, and students are going to have to practice throwing into every bucket one by one. \r\nStudents were amazed at the amount of boxes that we received in the gym. They were very curious as to what was inside and loved that we received new equipment. Students will be utilizing every piece of equipment that was provided. The yoga posters have been laminated, and will be placed by our mats. The posters will serve as a guide when students are on the mats and need extra guidance on what exercises can be performed. \r\nThe different colored dice, aside from their beautiful color, will serve for small group activities as well as instant activities. Students will get print outs of exercises and will have to roll the dice. depending on the number it lands on will depend on the exercise they will perform as a team. These small group activities will encourage leadership, communication and fitness all together.","fullyFundedDate":1758222493297,"projectUrl":"project/pe-equipment-to-help-our-little-ones-g/9598636/","projectTitle":"P.E. equipment to help our little ones get movin'!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ramos","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10178538_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1762787505242","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10178538"},{"teacherId":9831646,"projectId":9159783,"letterContent":"Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!
