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 Project

Our 5th grade students currently lack PE equipment. This is very unfair because it limits the physical activity they can take part in, both in their recess time and designated PE time. The variety of balls in this projects, will help promote teamwork, a crucial element for productive collaboration needed in today's world.

During our physical education instruction, we try to get every student highly involved and active in every activity we do with the hopes of making them lifelong, healthy individuals.

Through this project, we will give our students access to play several different sports, which will allow them to practice physical sport skills on a daily basis.
