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 Project

Our building is under repair and our yard is closed. Every teacher is becoming creative to help students release steam and be ready to learn. When students are not able to be active during recess we have a lot of behavioral issues because they have been sitting for too long. Following the pandemic students came back with more energy than ever. The boxing inflatable bags, gloves, and foam basketball will enable students to release some energy and reduce stress. This will increase their concentration and active participation in academics. This resources will help my students leave the stress in recess and be ready to learn.
