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

Help my students succeed through active play!

I am seeking funding to provide essential physical education supplies that will enhance the skills and teamwork of my students.

By acquiring toss and catch equipment, jump ropes, and pennies for team sports, we aim to foster a love for physical activity while developing critical motor skills and teamwork abilities.

Physical education plays a vital role in the overall development of children. Through engaging activities, students learn cooperation, coordination, and the importance of fitness. With the right equipment, we can create an inclusive environment where every student can participate and thrive.

Toss and catch equipment includes lightweight balls and catchers that are perfect for developing hand-eye coordination and promoting teamwork.

Jump ropes are an excellent tool for improving cardiovascular fitness and can be used in both individual and group settings.

Color-coded pennies will allow students to easily identify teams during games, promoting organization and inclusivity.

With these supplies, my students will not only improve their physical abilities but also build confidence and social skills. The structured play will encourage healthy competition and cooperation, making physical activity a fun and integral part of their daily lives.

Your support will directly impact the lives of my students, providing them with the tools they need to engage in active play and develop important life skills. Together, we can help them cultivate a lifelong appreciation for physical fitness and teamwork.
