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

My goal for this project is for students to have a space to learn about cultural significance of many sports. Because of this I have a ping-pong table in my classroom. This table is used to help support students learning of Chinese culture and language.

My students are special because without them the continuation of learning and culture is not possible.

Specifically, I want to dive into the cultural significance of ping-pong in Chinese culture. I have ordered new paddles and balls since I am running out due to breaking and old materials. The badminton is another thing I am focusing on because it has been heavily influenced by Chinese culture and having it would greatly help our school with our goal of learning.
