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

I love teaching upper elementary school kids! They are so much fun and so full of energy! They really enjoy playing football; however, through the pandemic so many of them have either not had the opportunity of playing and need more direction.

Through this project, I hope to get them theses flag football sets so that we can orchestrate a mini tournament during our recesses and most importantly they can also safely play and be active!

They would be so excited to be able to spend their time at recess knowing who is on their team easier and can move their bodies!
