FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Marino's classroom raised $589

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.

My Students

My students are Physical Education students of various backgrounds at Santa Rita Elementary School. I teach grade Kindergarten through Sixth grade.

Each of my students are unique and excited to learn new games and activities.

All of my students are full of energy and excited each day they come to physical education. I love that my students want to come to my class and be able to play and run their hearts out. They are always disappointed to leave because they are having so much fun.

My Project

Students who use the much need equipment will be able to master certain skills needed for everyday life. The students will also learn certain skills related to certain sports activities including but not limited to volleyball, basketball, football, golf, and many more activities. By using this equipment our students at Santa Rita Elementary will be able to learn new and exciting activity cities and games to further their skills from kindergarten through sixth grade. By helping with this project our students will be able to grow in the skills needed for everyday life and to live a healthy lifestyle at Santa Rita Elementary.
