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

We are a Title I school that enrolls 440 students. Our student population consists of 63% of our students being English Language Learners, 77% are at risk, and 80.5% of our enrolled students are economically disadvantaged. All 440 students come through my gym door every day for PE, and for that 25 minutes, all is right in their world. As a physical education teacher, my main goal is to promote lifelong fitness habits among all students and show them innovative ways to achieve that goal.

My Project

In order for students to gain a better potential for a healthy life, all students must be physically active. Foot Darts is an opportunity for students to experience a unique type of physical activity, gain focus, improve math literacy and skills, and provide motivation. Foot darts is a game that incorporates the combined features of soccer and darts with a 10 ft. X 10 ft. inflatable dart board and six soccer balls. It is an experience that will improve student's kicking accuracy along with endless opportunities for integration of math concepts in scoring.

"When will I use math?" is a question posed by students wondering how it will play a roll in their everyday lives.

Students are often shocked when they are told that they use math in physical education classes almost every day. This activity will provide fun opportunities to learn math and use cooperative learning in the process. Darts is a game of skill and strategy that is not commonly played by children, but by changing the method in which the darts are thrown, bring the skill and strategy to a level where children can be successful.
