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.
We are located in a small, rural town in New Mexico. Our school is a Title I, low-income school in which 100% of students receive free lunch and breakfast. Our students come from diverse backgrounds. All students have different needs and challenges in and out of the classroom.
I have been teaching physical education and team sports for 15 years.
My students love coming to PE class, where they learn a lot of sports skills to support their health and wellness. Students receive a minimum of 90 minutes a week for physical education. Physical education is very important in a child's physical development.
My Project
These materials will help the afterschool programs kids learn how to have fun through team sports. They will learn how to kick, catch, and throw a big kickball. We use to have two big kickballs but they got old and have holes. We had to throw them out. This is one of the funniest games to play and these kids want to have fun again.
So please donate to these kids so they can learn important hand-eye coordination skills.
They will also learn how to use foot and eye coordination. This is a great game for students to become active and have fun in afterschool sports programs.
