Celebrating 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
Albert is tired of being fat. Remember the Fat Albert cartoon back in the 70's and 80's. Fat Albert and all his buddies use to play games on the blacktop by his school. Well, Albert wants to get thin and fit so he needs circuit training equipment to get healthy and strong.
Our school is located in the heart of a large metropolitan city in Washington state..
The setting is a culturally diverse school with students from over 20 countries. They speak over 15 different languages. We serve over 230 kids. The majority of our population has lived in the US less than 2 years. Many of them have been here for only a few months. And some of our kids have not been in a formal educational setting before, let alone a PE class. So they are fortunate and will get to experience a quality physical education program at our school. They love PE class and can't wait to learn new games and activities each day!
My Project
Lets not let our kids become obese like Fat Albert was at an early age. Lets teach them about fitness and healthy exercise choices at an early age. I can do many circuit training courses and routines with the soft foam hurdles you place inside a 18" cone. The nice thing about these hurdles are that they are safe and no one will get hurt using them. The school's goal is to provide as many traditional American activities for our students as possible. And one of the most traditional classes offered through the years has been PE. We'd like our kids to get introduced to such sports as football, soccer, weight training and fitness, volleyball, baseball, lacrosse, kickball, tennis, hacky-sack, gymnastics, juggling, parachute games and with your help many of these activities can be introduced to them if we can get donations and funding from you.
Chances are you had a good experience in school and physical education class.
And now you want to give back. Please help us, help our non American born students develop the passion for PE and lifetime fitness activities. We're seeking small donations such as $10, $15, and $20. Your donation will be greatly appreciated
More than half of students from low‑income households
