Video Projects-Alejandra Emily Manuel and Darrien.

10/11/2019

We did 2 different videos one was called, "I can say no" and the other was called, "It's good to be different". We made posters for the videos and we explained what each poster was about.
"I can say no" is about self-advocacy.
For the video, "It's good to be different" we show that being different is okay because it is unique and it makes the world different because if it was the same it would be boring.
And that is what our 2 videos are about self-advocacy and diversity. -Alejandra
We made some posters about different kinds of sayings about beliefs, diversity, culture, self-advocacy, saying "no" and speaking out for yourself. We showed the other classes our videos. We appreciate our videos. -Darrien
