They are having fun, exploring different ways to move around, and also learning the new and different muscles that are being engaged and worked while having the fun. Not to mention, the balance and coordination that is involved as well. We will continue to maximize the use of the scooters and I will be finding new ways to incorporate them into our PE lessons.","fullyFundedDate":1766120706155,"projectUrl":"project/scooting-toward-wellness/9631066/","projectTitle":"Scooting Toward Wellness","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Reidenbach","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10197552"},{"teacherId":9735741,"projectId":9443574,"letterContent":"Free Time resources is a project that I was excited to watch get funded as students didn't have much to do in the classroom during snack time or in the morning arriving to school.
