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 Span School with a fresh set of new students that are a part of the middle school, and a newly built Physical Education Program. Students at this Span school have their first ever Physical Education Experience and are excited to dress for PE and learn. This is a novelty to them, since they have never exactly been to a traditional middle school, but we would like them to have the full middle school PE experience.

Many of my student's lack basic locomotor and non-locomotor movement skills that they should be able to do at their age.

Many of these students that are coming back from two years of online instruction are tired of exercising at home, and are eager to get outside and exercise. They miss what it is like to actually move outside. These students are well deserving of a strong middle school physical education program.

My Project

Many do not know that there are California Physical Education Standards that allow PE teacher to teach Archery at school. There is a tremendous amount of structure, self-control, and discipline needed in order to teach archery. Archery is an activity that not many students get to experience and engages students in a way that allows teachers to teach structure, self-control, and discipline.

Archery can be very dangerous, but it is also a tool that can teach kids etiquette.

Students working in partners of three, one student is drawing their arrow, the other behind them correcting their form, and the last one holding arrows for the shooter. All students are quiet, no one is saying a word, just focused on the target. All commands from the teacher are followed to a T; draw! aim! fire! cease fire! No one even touches their bow without their commands. There is beautiful etiquette that is learned through the sport of archery.
