Sitting still for long periods of time for most children is difficult. This is why both teachers and students look forward to recess. I am writing this grant to improve the resources that we have to better utilize our recess time and improve daily morale. At my school, we try to take our kids outside for recess as much as possible. However, the weather sometimes restricts us to our blacktop surfaces. My school has a smaller than usual blacktop surface. The equipment (like basketballs or kickballs) that we have is dwindling or is falling apart. When the children do not have many choices they tend to get in trouble. These items will give the students more choices and healthy and safe ways to let out the energy they have built up throughout the day. This grant would provide students the updated and new equipment to be able to better utilize the blacktop surface that we have. This grant also includes updated books and game pieces that would be beneficial for the when weather does not permit outside recess at all.
