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

These volleyballs which are softer will help motivate my students to play. Regular volleyballs are much stronger which can sting a little. With softer balls, kids will not have to worry about the ball hurting. Softer volleyballs will give my students the confidence to play volleyball. These softer volleyballs are also safe so students will not have to worry about being hit with the ball since these balls don’t sting. My students will appreciate this so much since a lot of them really enjoy playing volleyball. Thank you for the support.
