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

The projector and speaker will make a difference in my students learning by helping me give students an better instructional experience during physical education. A projector will allow me to give my students demonstrations on how activities and exercises should be performed. The projector when paired with the speaker will make my instruction better because students will have audio that will go with the activity or skill demonstration that is being presented.

The Bluetooth speaker will allow students to listen to music during class activity.

The speaker will be used in indoor and outdoor sporting events.

My goal with this equipment is to enhance my students learning experience in physical education.
