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

We are a class of 2nd and 3rd graders who really want and need new play equipment to use at lunchtime recess.

We want to move our bodies and our minds!

We need something fun to do with our friends. Our teacher suggested we do this project together, so we did. We would love new basketballs, jump ropes, skip-its, soccer balls, and more. You would make our recess fantastic by helping us get these materials.

Please help us fight boredom. We need to run around and be healthy and happy. We would love to play soccer, jump rope, and have pick-up games of basketball with our friends.

Thank you so much for supporting public schools in California. You are a star!
