Description
This alternative delivery professional development opportunity is for all ABLE teachers.
When I Was Puerto Rican, a book by Esmeralda Santiago and Almost a Woman, DVD, a PBS American Collection Presentation.
"Just when Esmeralda seemed to have learned everything in rural Puerto Rico, she was taken to New York City, where the rules and the language were bewilderingly different. How she overcame adversity, won acceptance in New York City's High School of Performing Arts, and went to Harvard, where she graduated with highest honors, is a record of a tremendous journey by a truly remarkable woman."
The activity involves the following steps:
1. Read When I Was Puerto Rican and watch Almost a Woman. (You may want to use the DVD in your classroom with your students.)
2. After reading the book and watching the DVD, write a reaction paper focusing on how the materials relate to your teaching experience or program.
3. Return the book with your reaction paper and a signed stipend request/evaluation form ($30) and a certificate of completion will be sent to you. |
