Description
Part of a Bundle Looking for something to use for Hispanic Heritage Month? This one to four day lesson and study guide focuses on the Tony award winning, Lin Manuel Miranda In the Heights musical. In the Heights tells the story of a vibrant Hispanic community in New York’s Washington Heights neighborhood. Students have an opportunity to study its plot, journey to Broadway, its creative staff, trivia about Broadway and In the Heights, view video clips, study the Tony awards and finish learning through an enrichment activity-either individually or as a group. Great opportunities for differentiation!
The lesson can stand alone or be combined with one of my Famous Artist Biographies (Lin Manuel Miranda) or other musical lessons (Hamilton) A teacher could use the lesson with students in distance learning with a few tweaks.
