History of Latinos in the United States

If our contributions were written back into history textbooks, can you imagine how America would see us? More importantly, can you imagine how we would see ourselves? John Leguizamo

Module objective: Explore the contributions that Latinos made to the U.S. and beyond. Identify Arizona History and Social Science State Standards that pertain to the teaching of Latino history in Arizona classrooms.

We are going to us a 3 part film series spanning thousands of years from the Ancient Empires to the early 1970s to learn about Latino history. You are only required to watch Episode 3 – Solidarity in a New Era. I encourage you to watch episodes 1 and 2, but you are not required to for this assignment.

The film series dives into well-known and lesser-known stories of Latino history and contributions to the U.S. The film aims to shine a light on the rich and often overlooked history of Latinos while showcasing how Latino history is American history.

To Do:

1. Create and complete a KWL chart for the film. A KWL chart is a graphic organizer used to facilitate learning. It helps students activate prior knowledge, set learning goals, and reflect on what they’ve learned. The acronym KWL stands for What I know, What I Need to Know and What I Learned. Here is what your KWL chart needs to look like:

1. Before you watch the film, Episode 3: Solidarity in a New Era (Voces American Historia: The Untold History of Latinos), record what you already know about Latino history and contributions to the U.S. Don’t Google or AI anything- just list what you already know, if you know don’t know much, it is okay- just say that.
2. Scroll through the and identify 3 standards that pertain to the teaching of Latino contributions to American and Arizona history. You may copy and paste the standards into the What I Need to Know part of the chart. Include the grade level of the standard, the discipline and standard number. Example: K.H1.1 Compare ones own culture with the culture of others.
   Key cultures include those in the classroom, community, and one of Arizonas 22 Indian Nations
3. Watch Episode 3: and take notes in the L – “What I Learned” column of your KWL Chart. You might need your meid and password to watch the film.
4. Answer this reflection question at the bottom of your KWL chart: How does this film extend or broaden your thinking about the history of Latinos in the US? Why is it important for teacher to know Latino history?
5. Once complete, please submit your KWL chart and reflection questions so I can see all of your great work!
