Our project was a success. We set out to expose the students to songs and cultures of many lands, and we did that by
- learning many children's songs common to countries from Central and South America.
- becoming friends with students in Peru.
- Creating a website to document our communications and to share our successes
- Planning a day of celebration and planting the seeds for future collaborations between
- us (Ms. Chavez, Ms. Chavira, Ms Salerno, and Mr. Levario),
- us and other schools (Mansfeld, Tucson High School, Santa Rita High School, and Lima, Peru),
- us and other disciplines (Spanish and Music so far and it is open to others who want to join!).
We also found ourselves enjoying what we researched, became motivated to expand this project beyond the walls of Mansfeld and incorporated the city talents of Mariachi San Juan and Alumni talents of Tucson High. More pictures and videos to follow!
