Celebrating 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
Many of my students struggle with basic motor skills, like throwing and catching, which are crucial for their coordination, teamwork, and physical fitness.
Having the right equipment would make a huge difference in their progress.
My students will be able to practice and improve their skills in a fun and engaging way. This will also help them build confidence as they master these important abilities.
Your support will provide us with safe, durable materials that are essential for these activities. This grant will help my school a lot and make PE fun.
