Bad Bunny’s halftime show gave us culture, joy, and conversation, but it also gave us curriculum.

In this episode of Our Classroom, Roberto Germán breaks down the symbolism behind the performance and explores how it can be used in classrooms as a powerful teaching text. From the sugar cane field imagery to the Puerto Rican flag, from honoring his mother’s maiden name to featuring Ricky Martin and centering Spanish language, this conversation examines how representation, history, gender, language, and class were all embedded in the visuals.

This episode is about more than a halftime show. It’s about how culture carries memory and how educators can teach with it, not around it.

Anger is often treated as something dangerous, especially when it comes from the margins. In this episode of Our Classroom, Roberto Germán reflects on anger not as a problem to eliminate, but as information worth listening to. Drawing connections between poetry, education, and the present moment, this conversation explores how anger is policed, silenced, and misunderstood, and how it can become a catalyst for care, accountability, and protection when we choose to engage it with intention.

When we label student behavior as “misbehavior,” whose norms are we actually using — and who gets left out of that definition? In this episode of Our Classroom, Lorena Germán joins to help us explore how behavior, SEL, race, and power intersect, and what becomes possible when educators move from managing behavior to understanding it through an antiracist lens.
