Physical Education Classes Are Finally Back!

Help me give my students the necessary social distancing items, such as the Eco Walker numbered spot markers and the flat square spot marker. In addition, the jump rope/hoop rack will also help to sanitize equipment between classes.

My Students

Our students endured a lot of challenges and frequent changes regarding school, how they interact at school in a safe cohort, and many have also been under stress at home when parents lost a job/were let go. Physical education for them last year would have been extremely beneficial, but they did not have it at all.

This year, I was asked to take over the PE program.

Although I have a lot to learn this year, what would make this a real PE program, would be to have the equipment that goes with the Dynamic PEASAP program requires.

My school budget helped to purchase a few necessary things, but it wasn’t enough. I am so excited to get students healthy again, and this grant would really help to make PE memorable. Thank you so much for this opportunity to apply for this grant!!!

My Project

This past year was so difficult for many students, and a huge concern was students not being able to attend a physical education class for a full year. Physical education equipment, such as the Eco Walker numbered spot and square markers to space them out in and outside the classroom will ensure that students can exercise at a safe distance weekly. Funding this year at our school has been cut drastically, so purchasing things such as the Champion Sports Scooter Board was not even considered. Having more equipment to use, like the Tachikara Volley-Lite volleyball and GoSports Strong Skin Foam Dodgeballs will help to decrease the amount of equipment shared. To try to spread students out on the court, the 28" Traffic Safety Cones will be used to create mini stations. In addition, trying to figure out a way to sanitize and organize jump ropes has been a huge challenge at our school. Ropes usually end up in the equipment bag tangled so students rarely give up their recess time to untangle them. By having the jump rope/hoop rack, I will be able to spray the ropes after each class to ensure they are safe for all to use.

As a brand new PE teacher, I hope to instill the love of exercising and staying healthy to our K-6 students.

We are so excited to finally be able to have outdoor lessons, as majority of the lessons were online last year.
