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

Foam balls, basketballs, and an electric pump will round out and refresh our physical education equipment.

These resources will reach kindergarten through fifth grade students and provide them with age appropriate equipment to keep physical education learning fun and safe.

The foam balls will help the younger students practice good form for various activities. The new basketballs will replace our current dilapidated ones. While the electric pump will make preparing for classes quick and easy. Hand pumping soccer balls, basketballs, kickballs, beach balls, and volleyballs will be a thing of the past. With the electric pump, preparing equipment for class will take less time, which means more time for an engaging physical education class.
