Give Students The Opportunity For Success In Physical Education

Help me give my students the opportunity to be successful with trainer volleyballs. The lighter the ball, the more opportunities for success plus it will go further and make it over the net more.

My Project

My students know that I have a lot planned for the day. They are quick to listen and eager to play with the equipment that we are using. We have been waiting for age appropriate volleyballs for some time. It's exciting to know that we will have that opportunity, if this project gets funded.

Students will learn to bump, set, and serve a volleyball.

With the equipment, the students will have more touches on the ball during drills, since there would be enough equipment for everyone. Please help us make this happen.
