This year I was given the opportunity to teach our Youth Empowerment Justice and Joy course for 6th graders. As part of the 9 week course learning about identity, bias, stereotypes, activism, and more, I was able to build community fundraising projects into our focus of making an impact on the world around us. Using one of Maker Empire's challenge course modules, I documented this in an earlier blog post. | |
Check out the videos by scanning the QR codes as well as watching their mixtapes. In the end, our 6th graders fundraised $351 for 4 different local charities.
