Benefits of Sports For All

I am a teacher.  My wonderful students energize me and inspire me.  In the context of developing sports opportunities for students in Africa, we discussed the importance of sports generally.  All students could identify the benefits of sports and physical games and most recognized that they take these opportunities for granted.  They were surprised to hear that there are kids who do not get opportunities to play sports and use sports equipment like they do on a daily basis.  I asked them to write about the benefits of sports and they rose to the challenge.  Here are just a few of their entries and the resulting bulletin board display!

Students are inspired to develop basketball in Africa!

Parker gets it!

Thank you Erin for your thoughtful comments!

Right on Emma!
