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

My students are energetic and enthusiastic. They come to our gym ready to move and get fit. But there are times when they are unable to participate in the physical activities. I would like to provide them with a sports themed library to allow them to remain engaged during these times.

These books will help them exercise their brains!!

These books will provide enjoyment for students grades K-5. Fitness is as much mental as it is physical. Through reading they can learn about different sports. Let's get them mentally engaged.
