Did that the first immigrants to live in The usa were not the English settlers in Jamestown or the Pilgrims in Plymouth, but the Spanish? They built the first permanent American settlement in St. Augustine, Florida, in 1565. The long and colorful history of Latinos in The usa comes alive through learning about the missions and early settlements in Florida, New Mexico, Arizona, and California; exploring the Santa Fe Trail; discovering how the Mexican-American War resulted within the Southwest becoming a part of america; and seeing how up to date immigrants from Central and South The usa bring their heritage to cities like New York and Chicago.

 

            Latinos have transformed American culture and kids can be inspired by Latino authors, artists, athletes, activists, and others who have made significant contributions to American history.
