Help me give my students safety equipment for our skateboard unit! Our school has done this unit for several years. Our safety equipment needs to be replenished.

My Project

What I love about our students is their enthusiasm to try new and exciting things! I love exposing them to activities they have never tried before. Watching them overcome adversity and push through something difficult. Watching their face light up when they have accomplished a goal is why I do this job!

Our Skateboard Unit is one of their favorite units of the year!

I have taught this unit for several years and our safety gear is wearing out. We need to gear to ensure the safety of our students. Thank you for any help that you can give!
