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

My students love to get up and be active while they are learning. Throughout the year I have been incorporating physical activities into our math and ELA lessons. However, I am constantly researching PE games that need little or no equipment. I would love to have some PE equipment to take out. Kids will throw, jump, skip, dribble, and run with this equipment. We are required 100 minutes of PE a week. With this parachute, my students will love every minute of it.

I chose PE equipment that would help students master various PE standards in engaging ways.

I'm excited to see the kids' faces when they see what someone donated. Thank you for considering our class for donations.
