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

Students will create a shirt that will represent who they are and what they like or dislike.

They will create this with all the resources provided and their uniqueness due to the drawing or printing of pictures that represent them.

Those resources include a printer, dot markers, cardstock, scissors, and more.

Students will make a connection that will make this project more interesting and fun.

They will share their thoughts with the rest of their peers and the teacher. By doing so, we will better know and help each other.

Remember, visuals are a must. Instructions are:

Tell your name. Tell what nationality you are. Tell how old you are:

Yo soy _________ y soy __________________.

Write the Spanish equivalent: Yo tengo……años.

Tell what city you are from. Tell in what high school you are a student at.

Write the Spanish equivalent:

Yo _____ de _______________.

Describe what you are like physically. Describe what your personality is like.

Write the Spanish equivalent of: I am and at least four adjectives that describe you.

Tell one thing you like or an activity you like to do.

Write the Spanish equivalent: Me gusta….

Write what classes you are taking and describe them. Tell your favorite class and why.

Yo tengo 7 clases. Yo tengo… con la señora Alvarez.

Include a song/artist/ painter whom you can relate to.
