My Project

What makes my students special? Their eagerness to learn a sport while increasing their fitness levels. We Introduced the Badminton racquet and birdies to the students last school year. Their eagerness to learn the sport was impactful; even though only few students played Badminton.

Floor hockey is another sport that will peak their interest.

This activity will be setup with some tricks to open their minds, even more about learning a new sport and the activities within the Games we will play.

With the requested speaker, I will attempt to play some music to help them feel themselves in the moment of play while having fun.

The respective resources which I choose for my students will be utilized to play the games with structure. It will assist them, with improving their realization of the concept of teamwork. The resource will benefit my students by allowing them to see the impact of hard work they put into learning the basics of each respective game. The specific learning outcome is for all of my students, will be for them to master the art of communication during game activity. This is the most important aspect of teamwork and play.
