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

My students absolutely love to play soccer. They are very competitive in and out of the classroom. Unfortunately our school does not have enough money to buy too many soccer balls or any vests. Teachers have to buy their own sport equipment if they want to have what the students need.

I want my students to have the soccer balls and vests they need to enjoy their soccer games.

Soccer is a great way to teach the students teamwork. It also teaches them to enjoy exercise. I know that if we got these items donated that they would be even more excited for recess.
