My Project

Students will be able to demonstrate proficiency in hand-eye coordination, reaction time, and manipulation an object. It is also important to me to keep all of them safe by using appropriate equipment while they practice these skills. In addition, the sports of pickleball and pillo polo will help my students refine their skill-related fitness components and transfer what they have learned to other activities like tennis and hockey when they get older. They will also continue to maintain their physical literacy, strengthen their social interaction skills, and recognize the fun and appreciation of teamwork.
