My Project

Our school hosts a Kids' Heart Challenge every year. The entire school comes together to play different sports/activities on this special day.

I am always looking for new and exciting activities to engage my students.

One of my students asked why we never do any type of sports like golf or tennis. This comment made me think that I needed to create something new to engage students who may be interested in sports that I do teach.

I decided that I was going to incorporate miniature golf into our Kids Heart Challenge. The student who approached me was so excited when I told him I was going to create miniature golf stations.
