My Project

I took an AMAZING job this year as a Pk-1st grade PE coach and I LOVE IT! I quickly learned that my sweet kiddos and campus were in need of PE equipment. At present time, my students have 12 very old and worn out hula hoops. I teach 6 classes ranging from 25 to nearly 60 students at one time, so you can see how having only 12 very old and worn out hula hoops is a bummer. There are so many PE games we could play with hula hoops, not to mention just learning to hula hoop individually. We currently "pretend" we are hula hooping, which is fun, but imagine them actually having a hula hoop to practice with. The smiles on their faces would be WORTH IT! Helping my classes to obtain more hula hoops would enhance our PE learning environment and provide my students with fun and new opportunities for developing their motor skills. Please help us fund this project, my students and I will be forever thankful!
