My Project

My kids are able to broaden their minds and become exposed to a variety of sports since I provide them with a variety of sporting goods. The majority of pupils participate in popular sports like football and basketball. Other sports like volleyball, soccer, badminton, and others should be incorporated into the curriculum, in my opinion. Having the required tools and resources enables my kids to start participating in less well-known sports.

With the help of the volleyball net and balls, boys and girls can compete against one another fairly.

Soccer is a well-liked sport at my school, and having additional soccer balls would enable me to run multiple soccer stations simultaneously, keeping all students occupied.

When it comes time for me to complete the pre- and post-tests for the Aspen fitness assessment, the Stadiometer will be very helpful. It enables me to gather each student's height, which is necessary for the Aspen Fitness evaluation.
