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

With cold weather upon us, students will have to start participating in indoor recess inside of our school gym. In our gym, we have one basketball rim for all 60 5th graders to play with. My project includes items students can play with during our recess time that will not only be fun, but keep them moving as well!

This project gives 5th grade students a chance to play games together like 3 legged races, sack races, giant Uno, and many other games I added to the project.

Right now, students either play basketball or tag. The items in my project will give my students options of things I do during recess time.
