My Project

If my project is funded I will use the balls and exercise equipment to increase social skills during recess. The students work extremely hard during the day and they would deserve this break to be free and enjoy their recess.

Currently, my students only use the standard playground equipment, but many of the other kids will love the idea of having something different.

The students will enjoy playing with various balls and jump ropes while taking a brain break from work. They will be able to play and create different games with each other.

Mrs. Lukacs Whitewater Academy Grades 3-5
