HOH PTO and REACH Team Hosting Hispanic and Latinx Heritage Month Celebration on Facebook Live


This week the HOH PTO and REACH Team have been hosting a Hispanic and Latinx Heritage Month Celebration on Facebook Live. 

Tonight's event, hosted by HOH Librarian Michell Jumpp, focused on MUSIC. HOH Music Teacher Kristina Martorano shared this awesome video of one of her 4th Grade classes (Mrs. Zouhairi) bucket drumming to legend Tito Puente's song Oye Como Va: 

 

The first night was hosted by HOH Spanish Teacher Janie Bravo and focused on FOOD, it was a lot of fun and left everyone hungry! Tomorrow night we will meet some of the PEOPLE making a difference in Newburgh and talk about some great book resources, and we will end Friday night with a spotlight on ART! A Recap of the other nights of the week can be found below! 

 

Here is a Padlet we created for people to share WHAT THEY LOVE:
