  • iPad to Track Students' Fitness Tests and Levels!

    Funded May 6, 2014

    The Ipad has been such a blessing in my physical education program. I know have a less time consuming way of inputting fitness test data into a computer. I am able to enter the data as they finish each one of their fitness tests. The convince of using this device has helped me reduce paper work and spend more time preparing lessons for my students. This results in a more efficient and beneficial physical education program for all my students. Thank you once again for your generous donation to my school. It is and always will be very appreciated.”

  • Kinect in the Gym Would Be AWESOME!

    Funded May 6, 2014

    The students absolutely love using the Kinect. It is a fun way to exercise while playing a video game. Many of my students don't have this technology at home so it is a real treat when they are able to participate in this exciting technology.

    Many teachers in my school use the Kinect as a reward for good behavior and academics. The teachers even like to play with the Kinect on there break times for exercise. Thank you once again for this generous donation to my school. The kids are so excited and enjoy playing with this machine every day.”

  • Early Childhood Spark PE Curriculum Needed!

    Funded Sep 15, 2013

    This new curriculum has been a God send. I am able to help struggling movers while providing quality physical education lessons that are aligned to the National Physical Education Standards. My students absolutely love these lessons and look forward in participating in the next lesson. The curriculum book is a great tool when used with the matching lesson toolbox. The online subscription is very helpful when lesson planning outside the school which happen most of the time. I am very grateful that you picked my project and my students are having fun while getting a great workout and acquiring new skills.”

  • Music Make My Class Move!

    Funded Feb 11, 2013

    Words cannot express our gratitude toward your generous donations. Through the boom box and IPod I have been able to expand movement in my gymnasium. I have been able to use a variety of music that is appropriate from grades K-5 which is a great motivator to get my most unmotivated students moving. Music has also been a great help as stop and start signals in a big gym with a large amount of students, it definitely beats using a whistle. Once again I would like to thank everyone for their generosity!”

I work in a low income area in NY and my school has a very limited budget. I am not able to receive the funding in my program necessary for my student's needs. I work with elementary children so my job is to help build the foundation they need to be confident in their physical abilities. Unfortunately, my students only receive P.E. once a week so I want to make sure that they are getting the best quality program possible in the time that they have. I am lacking key fitness and sport items for the kind of program that my students need and deserve. My students enjoy physical education very much but having very limited equipment makes a very limited program. With your help I can expand my Physical Education program and provide my students with lifetime movement learning.
