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

The students of BMS will be telling short stories using film. Creative Minds is a Cyber Foundation 1 production company that surround that Graphic Design unit.

My students are kinesthetic learners.

They are able to take accountability of their own learning when they do things they love and can see a desirable outcome.

Students will use teamwork, brainstorm, use critical thinking, building literary and technology skills. They will developing ideas they will bring to life through film. This should increase Language Arts and Technology literacy and gives students an outlook in the A/V Arts, Communication and Technology career cluster industry.
