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

This project will help me to provide some relief to my students after been working hard academically. It is a fact that through physical activity human beings can release stress and gain well being in their mental and emotional states.

Brain Break by Physical Play will give to my students the time to engage in a different activity to enjoy themselves in just being kids by playing between each other.

In the process they will recharge their mental and emotional tanks to return to the classroom to keep working in their learning. I plan to use this equipment during recess time or in special occasions.
