About the Project

This expansion project will engage learners at Hearthstone School in wholesome foods and Hispanic culture through garden plantings, strategies of Spanish language learning, inclusion of additional pen pal students, and an increased cultural enrichment program of music, dance and travel (a virtual field trip of a Mission) with emphasis on Hispanic culture. High school students will continue to do Hispanic ceramic production, but will make two-dimensional visual arts, tortillas, salsa and pozole using fresh garden vegetables, friendship quilts for student pen pals, bilingual songs and Hispanic dance moves.
