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

My students are active fourth graders with a lot of energy. Living in a city environment does not always afford them the ability to play outside and develop their athletic skills. I want my students to be healthy and active and have the same opportunities as students living in other areas.

I would like to expose my students to a variety of sports during our physical education time.

Many of my students do not have the resources to participate in recreational sports outside of school. My school is also limited in the sports equipment that it has. Providing the funding for these hockey sticks would be wonderful for my students.
