Central American Children Speak: Our Lives and Our Dreams (DVD/VHS)

Winner of the National Educational Media Networks’ Bronze Apple Award, this video opens in a Minneapolis classroom where fourth-graders ask questions about their peers in Central America. It then shows the daily lives of children in Guatemala and Nicaragua, beautifully illustrating that all kids have similar dreams, fears, and hopes.

The video is split into five eight-minute sections that can be viewed separately. 1994. 40-minute video and 28-page educator’s guide.
