Changes in Chile
Posted by Ms. DeAngelisAs part of a collaboration with their visual arts and writing classes, fifth grade Spanish students have been learning all about Chile. From political history and los desaparecidos (the disappeared), to arpilleras and protest art and poetry, to famous Chileans, the students have spent weeks studying the effect that the Pinochet dictatorship had on the Chilean people. To cap off this project, the Spanish students created an art project where they responded to one of the major themes that we studied in class. Projects included dances, poems, paintings, and posters, and all connected meaningfully to our study of such a turbulent time in Chile’s history.
