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

We are a is a Title I school in southern California where all students receive free meals. I have 27 awesome kindergarten students who are culturally diverse. They are a group of amazing and deserving kids. They are bridging the cultural gap every day as they learn, work, and play together. We are one big family!

My number one goal is to help all my students achieve the skills they need to be successful in school and in life.

To capture their interests, I need resources to help make learning engaging and enjoyable!

My Project

Did you know that a child who engages in sports is more likely to be well-rested and mentally sharp? Sports can also affect a child's development of self-esteem and self-worth. My students love sports of all sorts but sports that involve balls are their favorite! Unfortunately, our balls at school are always flat! These foam balls are soft and will never deflate! Perfect for my kiddos! They can use them to play kickball, dodgeball, and basketball, in their case more like shooting them into the basket! The spot markers are great for marking borders and setting ranges when they kick or throw the balls. I know my kiddos would have a ball! Pun intended!

A child can be successful in any sport, but if you don't have the equipment, you'll never know.

Playground equipment is just as essential as classroom supplies so please consider donating to this "fun" cause!
