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

I have some of the most restless, creative bundles of energy this school year. It's only day 2 and I can already tell the kids can't sit still. I noticed many of the students enjoy watching tic toc videos so I figured why not have them create historical tic tocs. I want my students to use their creativity and energy to show what they are learning.

We already have 3 computers that the students can use to edit the videos, all I need is the green screen and the video camera.

Thanks for taking the time to look into this project.
