Taking Physical Education to Another Level

Funded Nov 22, 2019

First and foremost I'd like to thank you personally for your generous donations. The students and I have been utilizing the new equipment so much. They have had so much fun creating their own obstacle courses. In one lesson, They had to run a relay to grab various things to use in their group prep. Then they were given the opportunity as a group to create their own course. Students would then participate in each other's, rotating until they completed every groups.

Let me tell you, the reactions were all over the place. You had the little ones in shock, jaw dropped, with the sound effects as you can imagine. The older ones had more of a mixed reaction with questions of what are those, how are we going to use them, when do we get to use them. I literally had to stop for a few minutes just to explain and model.

The students have been extremely excited over all the new equipment. The creativity is there just like I hoped. For our next project thats yet to be seen but students have been talking about parkour, wall climbing and even gymnastics. Now I know we are far from that point but their wishes did come true on this past project.”

With gratitude,

Mr. Marc
