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

Ordering new books that come with music designed to be more modern. So you have classical fairy tales but with hip-hop beats and spoken dialogue instead of just speaking the words during a book.

I've used Cantata Learning's Cinderella for a few years now and it's always a hit.

So now I want to explore more books and improve my own scope and sequence by changing my curriculum to better fit my children's needs. The kids are always more engaged when they hear that beat drop and since they can relate to a story that they already know, they can focus on the melody and pitch recognition.
