Today's youth are not physically active because they enjoy playing video games more than playing outside. In my P.E. class this is not the case! Everyday my students are up and moving in some way. From warm-up's to competitive races, our goal is to be physically fit by pushing and motivating each other along the way. To make sure we reach this goal we are in need of equipment to maintain our interest. This is why I am asking for items such as footballs, basketballs, and hula hoops for my students to use while they are actively moving during our hour block in P.E. Equipment is limited and my students and I have to be creative with competitions we partake in. Usually, we have a basketball competitions or races, but my goal is to expose them to new equipment to keep excited and ready for unexpected challenges. With your assistance, physical education can become more rewarding because my students will be using equipment they have never been exposed to, learning new skills in different sports, and maintaining their physical fitness. Please help provide us with parachutes, safety cones, basketballs, footballs, bean bags, and mesh bags so we can have a physically fit and encouraging year. These materials were needed previously, but even more so now because of Hurricane Irma.
