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 Project

Fifth grade students are required to take the physical fitness test in the spring. The items that I am humbly asking for, for example, the catchpad and ball set, the agility ladder, the jump ropes, the footballs, and golf set, will all help my students prepare for this test in a fun way but effective way.

My goal for this project is to help my students build strength and endurance while playing games and having fun.

My students are special for so many reasons. They are amazing, smart, kind, dual language students who work extremely hard to work at or above grade level in both English and Spanish. They need to relieve stress out on the playground in a fun way.

Mrs. Gallegos-Martinez will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 23.
