My project is NP Play loosely based off of NFL's Play 60. My group and I came to this project because we are all involved athletes who believe in the importance of being active and living a healthy lifestyle. We also want to start introducing elementary students to High School athletics at an early age. After doing research and finding statistics showing a large decline in physical activity in schools today compared to 20 years ago we realized this is an area in need of help. Recently we had our pitch day where we presented our ideas. We prepared by finding specific statistics like mentioned before, setting timelines, and having a main goal of getting kids up and active in school. The logistics are that we will travel to SCE on long days and depending on time meet with 1-2 classes. The rest of the week will be spent in the classroom planning lessons with sports and nutrition lessons. The estimated timeline is the whole school year and hopefully get through every grade in the elementary school. We were able to get this together by getting in contact with Sugar Creek's principal, Miss Shelton, who enjoyed and supported our idea. Also, we have had the help with Mrs.Bowman, a kindergarten teacher at SCE. She has been very helpful throughout the whole process by helping with lesson plan ideas and how to approach the students. Overall, the pitch day went well and we received good feedback from administrators.
