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

I am proud to teach at an inner city school in Houston, Texas. Unfortunately, they have been affected by Hurricane Harvey. Our school was flooded severely, and we have been relocated to a year long temporary location. Most students live within walking distance of the old location, and now have to ride the bus 30 minutes each direction.

Being displaced is bad enough, but having limited playground equipment is a travesty for young kids.

The students are working hard in class to learn a second language since the majority of them speak Spanish. They deserve some play time at recess and P.E. with new equipment which makes them forget about the turmoil that is going on outside of school.

My Project

After Hurricane Harvey, our school was no longer safe for us to return. This has been a huge adjustment for our students since we are not expected to be back into our building until next school year. Many suffered damage to their homes and loss of personal belongings. School has always been their safe place and now that has changed. With this equipment, they will be able to have fun during P.E. and recess like kids are supposed to do.

The students will be able to learn to shoot basketballs into the hoop, and little ones will love crawling through the obstacle course created with the gates and hurdles.

Of course PE would not be the same without a game of soccer, so the soccer balls will be loads of fun. Not only will these items provide the physical activity the children crave, but also it will allow them to build skills, improve eye hand coordination, and build teamwork while having fun. Most importantly, it will help relieve some of the stress that they undoubtedly are going through right now.
