Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I work with over 250 students as a physical education teacher and see over 800 students throughout the day. The students are doing the best they can to adjust to the new protocols in school. They have done a great job at following policies and procedures.

These students are AWESOME!!

Students have tried their best to work out and participate in our physical education units given the limited resources they have.

My Project

The materials in the Ball Value Pack will help students be more engaged throughout physical education. The equipment will be used during school and will help minimize the group sizes when learning new skills.

It is SAFER and more EFFICIENT when students have an array of equipment to learn within Physical Education.

In our school, we have limited equipment and it creates a disservice for our students when we must share the limited equipment with 50+ students.

If we get this Ball Value Pack, our students will have more practice time with the skill and smaller group sizes. Having smaller group sizes keeps students engaged for longer periods and provides extra practice for them.
