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

Our students are a full spectrum with a diverse campus in race, culture, socioeconomic status, and interests. Our campus serves approximately 635 students, grades 7th thru 8th and between the ages of 12 to 14. Ethnically our students are approximately 87% minorities with 45% being Latin American, 26% African American, and 13% Asian and Pacific Islander. 25% of our students are currently English Language Learners.

We have 10% of our population receiving services from our Special Education department.

We have students coming from all over the district including many who are also English Language Learners. Our students come from a variety of cultures and socio-economic levels which means that most students have limited access to technology at home.

My Project

Our PE department and students have great ideas, lesson planning, and games just waiting for some orange cones. Cones can be used in so many ways. We can use them for conditioning drills, PE games, and rely races among other things.

The cones are an important part of any PE program.

They open the path to many more student ideas so they can be active in developing a PE program that fits their needs and interests. Because of the many uses cones they can be & will be used almost daily by many students in many ways.
