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

My students are a special bunch because they are committed to making the Basketball program, the school and the world a better place. These young men are great student-athletes which believe in hard work and persistence. These student-athletes will be great advocates to society which is what makes them special. Our students are held to a high standard in our schools due to the fact they are athletes. The school community works diligently to hold our student-athletes to the highest of standards as well as enriching the school culture.

My Project

The materials in this project will allow all students to become ball handlers and play makers. In modern day basketball all players on the court are threats especially when they have play making ability. The goggles will allow all players to look up and find teammates. The combination of the dribble stick and goggles is the perfect compound to increase dribbling skill and court awareness.

I have also added a mat for traction.

Sometimes working with students from low socioeconomic is difficult. These students can barely afford new sneakers so the traction will be good in order for them to have efficient grip on the floor.
