Mini-Project: Vidas Impactante...cultura, biografía e historia
For this mini-project we were tasked with reading a chapter from Vidas Impactante… cultura biografía e historia, a book we have been reading in class. After reading a chapter we had to make a few different things to present to our classmates, in order to teach them what we learned from our assigned part. The objectives of this assignment were:
- I know some unique cultural and historical facts about a Hispanic Country,
-I can prepare a short presentation in Spanish and a slideshow to share my topics with my group (3-5 minutes approx),
-I have the courage to make mistakes and communicate my ideas in Spanish.
We all got to pick our person and country and then did separate research on both. After that, we wrote about what we learned about each topic. Along with that, we defined 10-15 keywords that applied to our chapter. Then we made a visual to accompany our writing to show in our presentation. Finally, we all make a learning check, like a Kahoot for the end.

Reflection
Overall I liked this mini-project that we did in Spanish 4, as the first real project we did, it was a nice change of pace. In classes like Spanish and math, it can be more challenging to make them project-based. However, I feel like this project had a nice balance between content, structure, and student involvement. I really appreciated how we could take the presentation and visuals component in whatever direction we wanted to. Throughout the variety of types of presentations, it was cool to see everyone's creativity. I also loved the Kahoots (checks for understanding) that were ingrained into everyone's presentations. To be honest that was my favorite part when watching everyone present to the class. Having us teach the chapters to one another was more impactful than just reading the chapters and I learned a lot about each country and person. Before this activity, I had not learned a lot about these individuals but now I understand their significance. I am looking forward to doing more projects as the new semester progresses.
