We love the new Basketball Hoops!

This week all of my classes grades 1-4 are in their basketball unit. Lots of ball handling, dribbling, passing, and shooting. Since we are in the new Lower School gym, we have new basketball hoops that raise and lower in height. The hoops go down to 8 feet, and now all of the children can practice shooting and be successful. Int he past we only had 10 foot rims, and a lot of children just didn't have the strength to get the ball that high. Now the children are so excited that they can make their shots. I could even teach the 3rd and 4th graders how to do lay-ups since the hoop was at an appropriate height. This is just one of the things I love about our new space!
