Goal

"Rolling into Learning" project will incorporate Tricycles into the physical education curriculum for all Kindergarten through second grade students. This initiative directly addresses a need for increased physical activity that develops foundational gross motor skills, including balance, coordination, leg and core strength, and bilateral coordination. The tricycles will be utilized in structured lessons and imaginative play scenarios to improve physical literacy, spatial awareness, and problem-solving skills, while also boosting student confidence. This project will provide a safe, engaging, and developmentally appropriate activity that supports students' holistic growth and lays the foundation for future athletic achievement.
