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

Our school is implementing a Drama/Theater position for the 2022-2023 and we want each student to not only have the confidence to perform, but to have quality scripts that are engaging.

My goal is to prepare and teach lessons that integrate art through the Next Generation Standards and the BluePrint for the Arts.

Also, I will prepare and host an arts (music, dance, theater, or art) show(s) for each class/grade that is programmed collaboratively with teachers and administration. Teaching students from grades K-5 require a variety of scripts in a wide range of reading abilities and content.
