Book excerpt: A Kid's Guide to Latino History features more than 50 hands-on activities, games, and crafts that explore the diversity of Latino culture and teach children about the people, experiences, and events that have shaped Hispanic American history. Kids can: * Fill Mexican cascarones for Easter * Learn to dance the merengue from the Dominican Republic * Write a short story using &“magical realism&” from Columbia * Build Afro-Cuban Bongos * Create a vejigante mask from Puerto Rico * Make Guatemalan worry dolls * Play Loteria, or Mexican bingo, and learn a little Spanish * And much more Did you know that the first immigrants to live in America were not the English settlers in Jamestown or the Pilgrims in Plymouth, but the Spanish? They built the first permanent American settlement in St. Augustine, Florida, in 1565. The long and colorful history of Latinos in America comes alive through learning about the missions and early settlements in Florida, New Mexico, Arizona, and California; exploring the Santa Fe Trail; discovering how the Mexican-American War resulted in the Southwest becoming part of the United States; and seeing how recent immigrants from Central and South America bring their heritage to cities like New York and Chicago. Latinos have transformed American culture and kids will be inspired by Latino authors, artists, athletes, activists, and others who have made significant contributions to American history.
Download or read book Why Hispanic Heritage Month Is Important written by Agata Galeas and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-09-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Latina in me is an ember that blazes forever." - Sonia Sotomayer "When Latinx kids don't see themselves represented on stage or film or television or newspapers or history textbooks, what they're told is, 'You don't matter. But when they see themselves represented, then they are told ... 'You are important. You are authors. You are scientists. You are explorers. You are special. You are leaders. You are respected. You are the reason we are here.'" -John Leguizamo "While our culture, traditions and religion may differ, we pride ourselves on working hard, educating ourselves as much as possible, striving for better lives for our children, loving our often large and blended families, and sharing as much of our history and customs as we can with anyone who chooses to really see us. We are not so different after all. People simply need to see us for who we are and not who they expect us to be." - Natalie Morales Although Latino and Hispanic are commonly used interchangeably, their definitions differ. Latino is commonly used to describe persons who are from Latin America, whereas Hispanic normally refers to those with a heritage in a Spanish-speaking nation. No matter what their heritage is, anyone can claim these identities. Nobody contests how individuals identify, according to researchers and publications (even the US Census). Understanding how these terms differ from one another and when to use each one helps ensure proper usage. You may develop such awareness by becoming aware of the definitions, history, applications, and self-identifications of the Hispanic and Latino identities. 2022's Hispanic Heritage Month begins on September 15 and runs through October 15. Although you don't need to wait for an annual event to be proud of your ethnic heritage, for Hispanic Americans, those four weeks serve as a time to celebrate their distinct cultures and the tales that have shaped them.
