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

School provides crucial learning experiences for students in a wide range of content areas, including physical education! Standards based fitness instruction is crucial for students to learn because it gives them a break from the classroom and an opportunity to develop gross motor skills, practice sportsmanship, and maintain healthy fitness habits.

Having access to a wide range of sports equipment is crucial for cultivating students' love for physical activity.

Our school currently has some equipment, but these additions will expand our range of possible activities significantly.

Foam balls are excellent tools to practice basic volleyball skills, aiming for targets, and playing exciting games like "Hula Hut" (an alternative to dodgeball). Yoga mats will help students develop flexibility and strength that will carry on into their personal lives. My class and fellow classrooms will deeply appreciate your contribution to our physical education lessons.
