My students need new gym equipment and materials to revitalize their physical education experience.

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
The students in my school range in age from 3 to 14 and all come from diverse backgrounds. They learn in two languages, English and Spanish, on a daily basis. As a new educator in the building, I am trying to help change students' mindsets around physical education. Our school is an inner city school where 100% of our students qualify for free or reduced lunch. Many students are often not as active outside of school and physical education class is the time that I have to change that for them.
My Project
Currently, as a school we have access to a limited amount of physical education resources and the equipment we have now is worn out, broken, or obsolete. As we transition into a new year and having a new gym teacher, it is essential that we try to revitalize students' excitement around physical activity and sports play. These rims, stopwatches, tennis balls, pinnies, and speaker will allow students to engage in new athletic exercises while also breathing life into our physical education program. Improving students' engagement during P.E. class may also make a difference in their level of active engagement outside of school. A child's education is only helped further when they are given ample opportunity to build healthier lifestyles and what better environment to do that in then physical education class!
More than half of students from low‑income households
