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

Please help my classroom get brand new sports equipment. My scholars are very much interested in sports and love to play any type of sports whenever they have a chance to get play. Many of my students were a part of the school's sports teams such as football, volleyball, and soccer. Yet when those sports' seasons end, they do not get the opportunity to refine those skills.

If I were to receive these donations, my scholars would be able to have the chance to refine their skills in their favorite individual sport and be able to get better for the next season.

With these balls and supplies, I will also be able to teach some curriculum about teamwork. Giving my students this opportunity will also help them academically because they will have an outlet to relax before going to their academic time.
