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

My students love to go outside and play. They run straight to the grass area, then stand around and talk or chase each other. Usually, someone gets hit or gets hurt. There is no outside equipment for them to jump rope or throw a football, so I created this project.

My students need equipment for outdoor activities.

They will get exercise and develop large motor skills, but they will also learn to work together and share. I want my students to be kind to one another and to learn to lose gracefully.
