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

Each day about 125 students have Physical Education at our school. When students enter the gym, they run and stretch to warmup and exercise. Students perform activities to enhance their skills in a specific sport. The biggest challenge is not having enough equipment to play these games.

My students are very energetic and love being in the gym.

The students only get Physical Education twice a week, so they value their time when they get here. My students also love to play new games or activities that they don't normally play outside of school. Hockey and soccer are their favorite games to play when they have Physical Education.

My Project

The students will be using these resources such as soccer balls, hockey sticks, goals and multipurpose balls, every day for hockey, soccer, team handball and other group games. By playing these games, the students will learn valuable lessons in health, teamwork, and sportsmanship. These are valuable lessons that are learned along with developing skills to play and exercise outside of school.

This project will help give students new games to play everyday.

Exercise is so important in our community as the obesity rate continues to rise. Playing games that students enjoy, will help them exercise and learn valuable life lessons. These games will also help develop life long friendships with classmates.
