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

My students are at a school that is driven to get them into the public sector. I believe it is important for students to know of the world history, and of the US history, and how that connects to the current world. Most students do not understand how vast the world is and how actions taken by the leaders of the world can affect everyone positively or negatively. I want them to realize how the spread of a disease such as coronavirus can affect the world.

My Project

Being a history teacher, I enjoy giving my students current event articles that explain what is happening in other parts of the world, so that they can see that the word is more complex than what they see around them. Furthermore, I am able to connect these current events to events that happened in the past and am able to draw correlations between the events that happened in the past to the events that are happening in the moment. By doing this, I am able to get students engaged in historical lessons and am able to get them to make references between the two time periods.
