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 Students

I teach K-6 graders in Title 1 school, my students are very engaging, active, love all kind of sports, they strive to have an equal opportunity to access high-quality education, and to attain proficiency level in academic as well in sports and health.

I try to explore ways to teach in a manner that motivates the students and allows for frequent success opportunities.

However, due to the limited sports equipment, I provide a choice of materials and use a variety of teaching methods and approaches.

My Project

Sports teach character and values. sports give a great hope for teacher to teach students the values of perseverance, integrity, compassion, and courage. My students will practice the fundamentals of basketball and soccer using the donated balls. Students who are well drilled in these fundamental skills usually possess a stronger degree of confidence in their ability. However, only proper preparation with a proper equipment will produce that confidence.

The donation of this equipment will help students to develop the skills, knowledge, and competencies to live healthy and physically active lives at school and for the rest of their life

Using the donated equipment, will help my students to practice different sports that helps them to develop mental and physical toughness and shapes their body and make it strong and active.  Sports matter for all my students because they can change their lives.  They reveal and develop character.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
