My Project

I am the P.E teacher at The Richmond Pre-K Center. I teach students in specialized classrooms as well as general education students. I am looking to provide differentiated materials for my classroom that all the students will be able to use. We have 10 units of study in our curriculum. For example: How can I use my body in different ways? The materials provided will help with complex movements like skipping, leaping, crawling and balancing. Items like the tunnel for example, will help with these units. I M looking for items like basketballs and soccer balls for every student for particular units. Thank you in advance for your help in providing these materials for my students.
