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 introduction of a new game is always fun and exciting. The fact that it is easy to learn and kids gain success early on is a game changer.

I started teaching this game 2 years ago with modified equipment and the results were amazing.

Time is right for proper equipment, including pickleballs, nets and pickleball paddles!

The game is quick, exciting, and gets the heart rate up. My kids learn to keep score and practice math skills. First graders up to fifth graders all enjoy this game. Honestly, who doesn't want to hit an object and see where the object goes.

Introduction to new, exciting, and fun activities makes a world of difference to our youth as they find the one or a few activities they will stick with as they become productive healthy members of society.
