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 Students

The students at our school are out-of-the-box thinkers and hard workers. We love our Innovation Station (STEAM classroom), school garden, and our specials classes of year-round art, music, Spanish, library and physical education/health. Our kids come from a rural community and a small town nestled in the mountains along the I-70 corridor. They are active, inquisitive, innovative and love to learn new things in new ways. We are passionate about hands on learning, teamwork and problem solving that challenge our minds and bodies. This year we are having to be even more creative with our thinking during the COVID guidelines set for school.

My Project

BlazePod Flash Reflex Lights and Reaction Training System will bring novelty and variety to our fitness stations. It is a fun and innovative way to teach two skill related components of fitness: speed and agility. The challenging activities help improve both non-sport athletes and athletes. The students will see a real world training system in action and have fun doing it. The BlazePods also work to improve reaction time with visual cues. BlazePods are an innovative way to bring technology into the physical education and health classroom. We will add them to our fitness stations for a fun and fit experience.
