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

We want to expand our fitness training unit lesson planning and training for all our school's sports teams. We currently have a coed flag football team, coed volleyball team, both girls & boys basketball team, and both girls & boys soccer teams, and of course all our PE classes. We will use these jump ropes to give our students workout and training options. It is important for students to know they have options.

Giving our students options can pique their interests in developing healthy lifelong habits.

Working and training is not always about running and lifting weights, Having these ropes will help our students find a workout that will fit their interests.
