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

Students have been doing a great job exercising this year in PE, weight training, dynamic fitness, and girls’ weight training club. These mats will help students to protect their back when doing sit ups. They will also help students that are working towards doing push ups by protecting their knees. By receiving these mats, students will be able to push themselves to do the best that they can while using this new barbell.

My goal for this project is to create an equal opportunity for all students to have the materials they need to have growth in PE.

The mats, as well as the shorts requested will help students to have the proper equipment to be success in PE.
