Funded Sep 9, 2016Thank you so much for your generous contribution. My students have benefited greatly from the equipment that was purchased. All of the materials have been utilized by the students either during their physical education class time or as part of their recess equipment.
The first thing the students got to use was the Ogosport sets. Basically it is a hand trampoline that they could use independently or with a partner. Students started modifying the activity and discovered they could play a version of 'Monkey In The Middle!' I incorporated the double dice into the students warm-up by having them partner up, roll the die and add up their numbers. Students then had to perform whatever exercise was on their exercise station plate. Needless to say the dice activity was a huge hit with the students.
Our middle school basketball group has benefited from using the new pennies. Organizing teams with four different colored pennies has made it much more efficient. The new basketballs did not go unnoticed! Students love to come into the gym during their recess time and play an organized game of basketball. In the upcoming months students will learn how to play koosh bocce, it is a first for me, with the koosh balls that were purchased.
Thank you again for supporting my students and helping them live a more active and healthy lifestyle!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Hagan
