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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My students in grades three and four are learning fundamental motor skills needed to meet their Physical Education standards. These skills will help them build the basic skills they need to continue to successfully participate in everyday sports at school or at home.

The different types of balls will help them throw underhand and overhand when playing catch or striking it with a racket or paddle.

They will be able to each have their own equipment so they can be taught in groups or work with a partner.

Students will also develop a sense of community while learning essential skills.

Mr. Rodriguez
Grades 3-5
