Our students learned how to put on their gear, stand, stop, turn and had the opportunity to learn other skills they can use for a lifetime. Each day we started with 20+ skatemates to help with balance and help them gain confidence. By the end of the unit - less than a handful! SO much progress was made! We ended our skating session with challenging obstacles and glow lights to add more excitement to the experience.
During our time skating, we noticed many students supporting and cheering each other on. There was something extraordinary about rolling around the gym with friends, laughing and creating unforgettable memories. In all, our skating experience not only increased heart rates but it also fostered a sense of community and connection.
