My Project

This project will support my students' physical wellness by incorporating structured physical activities and movement breaks into our daily classroom routine and fitness instruction. Each resource will play a vital role in helping students stay active while building healthy habits:

Help my students build strength, focus, and resilience through engaging yoga, fitness, and movement activities that inspire lifelong wellness!

Yoga Mats: These mats will provide a designated, comfortable space for students to engage in yoga, stretching, and strength exercises. Students will use the mats during guided yoga sessions, mindfulness breaks, and physical fitness activities within the classroom or designated indoor areas.

Fitness Trackers: The pedometers will encourage students to monitor their movement and set personal fitness goals, such as step counts or active minutes. These devices will promote accountability and excitement around physical activity during guided fitness instruction or walking activities outside of the classroom.

Multi-Sport Ball Set: The ball set, including a basketball, football, and soccer ball, will allow students to practice teamwork and coordination through structured activities such as dribbling drills, passing exercises, and movement games. These activities will take place in designated spaces outside the classroom, such as open outdoor areas, and during our field day activities.

Yoga Mat Cleaner: This cleaner ensures that the yoga mats are safe, clean, and ready for daily use. By maintaining a hygienic environment, students will feel more comfortable using the mats for physical wellness activities.

By integrating these resources into fitness lessons and movement breaks, my students will develop physical strength, coordination, and mindfulness. These activities are not only about staying active but also teaching students the importance of movement and wellness in their overall development.
