Celebrating 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
My 7th grade middle school students are creative, curious, and enthusiastic learners. As we learn about Medieval World History and Geography in my class throughout the school year, students will document their experiences in an interactive notebook called the "Travel Journal." Research shows that learning becomes more engaging, focused, and meaningful when students are allowed to be creative with their writing, active learning, and use a visually appealing format. The Travel Journal notebook does this for my students.
By the end of the year, students will have a personalized portfolio of all they have learned about Medieval History.
I have had students who come back to visit me years later and show me their Travel Journals they still have from my class. The Travel Journal becomes a work of their accomplishments in my class and gives students a sense of pride.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
