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

There are so many sports that can be played in a physical education class, but often times there is not enough equipment to teach the classes. Providing classes with more sports equipment, such as soccer balls, basketballs, playground balls, and even golf clubs.

Having enough sports equipment in a physical education class is essential to having all students be able to participate.

Many PE classes do not have enough sports equipment and often have to share. Being able to have each student use their own will make for a more efficient and effective class.

GoSports Premier Soccer Ball with Premium Pump, paired with Champion Sports Large Extreme Soccer Portable Pop-Up Goals will provide plenty of opportunities for students of all ages how to play soccer. They can be taught drills, games, and skills that can help them as they get older. MacGregor Multicolor Basketballs can allow the PE teachers to teach various games and skills; how to dribble and shoot a basket. GKK Foam Baseballs 12 Pack Soft Baseballs not only is good when learning how to play baseball or softball, but learning how to play catch with a partner will build social skills and hand-eye coordination. BallFUN Dodgeballs Playground Balls, and Dodge Ball Set are great not only for a PE class, but for recess where students can play a variety of games such as handball, dodgeball, four square, and kickball.

Other equipment such as a High Volume Air Pump will keep all the sports balls pumped up to the appropriate level so students are not playing with flat balls and a BROTOU Extra Large Sports Ball Bag Mesh Soccer Ball Bag Heavy Duty Drawstring Bags will help keep the PE teacher organized and ready to go for the next class.
