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

The majority of my students absolutely love soccer and can spend hours playing it with friends when they have the equipment at recess or during PE.

When my students are given the tools they need, they are willing to put in the time to practice and develop their skills and these soccer balls will allow them to do that.

These soccer balls will also help our students by giving them a fun way to stay active, build relationships with peers, and keep them off their devices and engaged in outdoor activities.
