Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Having these carts will help me and the students tremendously with simple and easy equipment rollout for all. This will get students into gameplay faster which means they are learning more and being active more during PE class.

My goals for this project are to begin to teach students the importance of organizing your belongings and keeping things in a certain place and help students have more activity and learning time.

The organization equipment I have now is old and falling apart and doesn't allow for students to take ownership of their PE experience. Having this will allow me to teach students not only what organization in sports looks like, but also give them the ownership of being able to put up their own equipment instead of having to rely on the teacher to do that.

This would be a great project for you to fund to help my kiddos learn important organizational skills and to help them have some more ownership in their PE class experience.
