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
I wish to provide my students with the best possible opportunities to learn and grow both academically and physically. Physical education plays a very important role in a child's development helping them build coordination, strength and teamwork. Unfortunately, our classroom does not have some equipment that could enhance our PE lessons.
The items I am requesting are more than just fun - they are important tools that can help young students improve their gross motor skills and engage in physical exercise which is a great outlet for them.
Hula hoops support balance and flexibility, while skip balls encourage rhythmic movement, coordination and cardiovascular fitness. Having these items in my classroom will allow my studetns to actively participate in a variety of exercises that will not only contribute to their physical fitness but also the overall learning and focus in the classroom. These materials will be regularly used in PE and any contribution you can make would be deeply appreciated and would help create a positive, active environment conducive to learning for my wonderful first graders.
