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

We creating a fitness club for students to stay active. It is no news that students nowadays are very focused on technology and video games. In an effort to motivate students to stay in our program, we are including a Sony Play Station 4 so that students can have an exercise routine that is fun and engaging.

Using the PS4 for fitness will motivate students to complete their fitness routine and give them an opportunity to choose the pace and kind of exercise they want.

The PS4 has tons of fitness games and exercises appropriate for all ages. First, you're walking/running/jogging at whatever speed you choose because you control the game. And second, it's fun! If you make working out fun then students will be able to stick to their daily routine without any problems whatsoever-and this makes all the difference. Students get fit and also stay out of the streets after school. This will have a positive impact because they are doing something productive and staying out of trouble.
