Students in the movement and elementary activities class taught children in first and second grades from Buffalo Public Schools (BPS) #17 and #54 throughout the final two weeks of the semester.
Canisius College students created and led activities which included tag games, relay races and soccer among others. The activities helped BPS students hone their throwing and locomotor skills. Canisius students also incorporated the common core by teaching a new game called Twizzle, which helped the children with their math skills.
