My Project
I am raising funds to provide my students with coated foam balls, a simple yet essential tool for building confidence and skills in physical education. Right now, we don’t have enough, and these balls offer a safe way for students to practice throwing and catching without the fear of injury. They are perfect for developing hand-eye coordination and teamwork, helping students progress to more advanced activities.
My goal is to create a fun, inclusive environment where every student feels comfortable participating, regardless of their skill level.
Many students hesitate to engage in games involving traditional balls because they worry about getting hurt. Foam balls remove that barrier, allowing them to focus on improving their abilities while having fun. With these, we can introduce a variety of exciting games that keep students active, engaged, and motivated to learn.
What makes my students special is their eagerness to try new things. They come from diverse backgrounds and bring different experiences to class, but they all share a desire to grow and have fun. Some are just beginning their journey in physical education, while others are refining their skills. These foam balls will ensure that everyone, regardless of ability, can participate, build confidence, and enjoy being active.
With your support, we can provide my students with the tools they need to succeed while making learning fun and safe. Thank you for helping us bring more excitement and skill-building to our class!
