Congratulations! You each get extra credit (not that you need it!) as well as you may select a recipient for a Kiva loan from me! Way to go!

Please vote for your favorite. You may decide the criteria for what makes it your favorite! 🙂 Check back soon for more links as they are turned in!

Hi Kristy,
I absolutely LOVE this project! It is clear that your students put a lot of effort into creating these videos, by the quality of their work. They all did a great job! I’m curious, did you teach a lesson leading up to this project? Do you have a rubric that you used? I’m an interested in doing something similar with my Spanish 3 class during the 2015-2016 school year. Any information you could provide would be so greatly appreciated!

I just got a message on Facebook from one of the winners of this contest. She has decided to study abroad in Spain and wants to minor in Spanish! Yeah!
I did teach a unit on microlending. I will be teaching it again this year and I will make an effort to get those items up on my blog soon!
Thanks for commenting!

Great! I would love to be able to use some of your resources to do a similar project!
Danielle, I emailed you! 🙂
just noticed…Hannah’s video link doesn’t work.
My 7th and 8th grade students will be voting as an extra credit or enrichment activity, love this!
Awesome! Thanks! Also I tried Hannah’s link and it opened for me? I am not sure what the deal is with that. I’ll try it again from home and see if it opens. Maybe she has her privacy settings on?
Amazing!! I love this!
