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

I work at a high school where we have a diverse low-income population. My students struggle every day with issues that would surprise most people. Within this population, passion and drive help them to succeed but we need more tools to help them get there.

I'm in charge of the Multimedia Academy where I get to see students driven by their passion and overcome their daily obstacles.

Some go on to be professional artists and some walk away with the knowledge to appreciate art and the world around them.

My Project

These books will help me understand sketchnoting and provide instructions to help guide the students. I've seen videos of people explaining a concept through sketchnoting, and it's more engaging.

My students will be able to use sketchnoting with concepts from my class and for brainstorming ideas.

Mind mapping has become an art form, and I want to use sketchnoting with mind mapping. I think they go hand in hand.

These books will help my students visually see how to sketchnote, and they will be more successful with visuals and instructions.
