My Project

I am looking to acquire scooters for my gymnasium. With these scooters, I will be able to teach spacial awareness and directionality in a fun way for my students. We will use the scooters to learn left turns, right turns, stop, go, and "how to drive on the street", as well as how to move around safely without bumping into each other. Also, my students will be able to use them during "choice time" to move around the room as a reward for doing a great job during class time.

I teach students with autism who like to express themselves through sensory activities and movement, these scooters will give the students a different outlet for that.

This summer, my students had the opportunity to play with scooters like these, and they all loved it! They were all so excited to move around the gym with equipment they never have used before. Now we would like to get a set of scooters for our Adapted Physical Education class.
