My Students

Do you remember health class when you were a student? Imagine being a student in a disadvantaged neighborhood school with limited resources. I want my students to have a positive memory of Health class and access to resources they deserve!

My school student body is so diverse and come from all walks of life!

83% of my students are economically disadvantaged and 22% of my students are English Language Learners. The multicultural mix of my students is what I love most about the students I teach!

My Project

All the materials will directly impact all of the students at our school. Every student in grades K-8 receives Health class throughout the school year. I have never had any Health materials purchased by the school other than what I have acquired over the years. I would like to broaden the scope and give my students access to a variety of things including art supplies and a class set of scissors for our health projects, health board games to test their knowledge, nutrition bean bags as well as posters and flip charts to provide better visuals of what we are learning. We also need a protective case and dongle for our iPad to project the Health content and presentations to the projector.

This project will greatly enhance my students experience in Health class.

The teaching tools will enhance the lessons, the games will help bring back fun while learning at the same time and the wipe off boards will utilized in a team jeopardy game I would like to introduce to the students in which all questions are focused around health topics we are currently learning about or have recently learned about. I plan on using the nutrition bean bags in a team relay challenge.
