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 goal for this project is to provide better equipment to help my students become more engaged within physical education. The Spyder Pong set, jump ropes, target nets and jumbo Connect Four are great materials to increase my students' engagement. I believe this equipment can develop my students' physical abilities and participate with other students.

In PE, the goal is to physically develop our students' ability to move, control, and perform to their current conditions.

Mentally, it is important to move our bodies because it aids in how we can release our stress in a healthy manner. Hence, I believe having better equipment will motivate our students to care for their bodies and mentally, improve their mindset.
