Teaching Resources
The lesson plans gathered here were developed by Virginia educators as part of our bilingual oral history project. Each lesson draws on Latino Virginia interviews as primary sources, offering students a direct window into the experiences, memories, and perspectives of their neighbors and communities. Designed for middle school and high school classrooms in Virginia and beyond, these resources are freely available for educators to use and share.
