My Project

Our students are Awesome kids with lots of energy. They love to be active and they love to exercise. The students come from a variety of backgrounds. The school is fortunate to have students from many different countries and a wide variety of backgrounds.

Even though some have economic challenges they love Physical Education and the chance to learn new ways to exercise.

All of the students love to try new activities.

The students could use the foam and yarn balls in PE class to get heart rates up and work on the fundamental skills of throwing and catching. My students are of all ages and abilities and having these foam and yarn balls would allow them to play a variety of games safely. These foam and yarn balls would offer them the chance to learn.
