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.
Working with so many students from so many different cultural and religious backgrounds is something that I have never experienced before working at my school, as a student, or as a teacher! Every day, I see my students walk into class, it brings a smile to my heart that fuels me to continue growing and being better each day. As the health/PE/weight training/swim teacher, that can also be difficult while understanding where they are coming from for mental/emotional health, social health, and physical health, and trying to help each student find their way to total health!
With that being said, one aspect of what I do is to get these students to be more physically active!
Many of our students don't know how to move correctly, haven't been allowed to be physically active, or the age of technology that we are in keeps them in their bubble of phones and video games! I am working on changing up the culture of our school and community to help everyone understand that with a healthy body comes a healthy mind and vice versa!
My Project
Our students deserve the best! Flat out! And it is our job as their teachers to make sure that we can get them the best and make sure they are using equipment that they are proud to use. Through this DonorsChoose project, we are trying to give our students not only the best but a variety of games and sports that they can play and learn to move better and have fun!
Some of these games many of our students have heard of, but maybe have never played, like hockey, whiffle ball, and tennis.
We also want to give them opportunities that they might not have received otherwise!
