My Project

My students have disabilities such as down syndrome, autism, and other intellectual disabilities. I believe that all children should have access to everything that physical education has to offer. When I opened my closet on my first day of work last week, I was surprised to see some basics missing.

I love yoga, and I would love to teach yoga, but we have no mats.

I don't have any softballs in my closet, which is a must! A soccer goal is a basic that I also dont have. I hope threw these items; I can expand my student's learning outcomes.
