Students completed the attached warm up activity talking about what units they've enjoyed/learned from this year.
Talked about the current holiday: Semana Santa and introduced other vocabulary:
* Pascua - Easter
* Cuaresma - Lent
* Cena de Seder - Passover
* Carnaval
Talked about the importance of Semana Santa in the Spanish-speaking world because of the prevalence of Catholicism.
Students received attached descriptions as well as a map of Latin America and Spain. Students passed around photos from the Semana Santa in the Spanish-speaking world and matched them with the description. They also looked up the underlined words. Finally, students found each of the cities/countries mentioned in the description and put them on the map.
Tarea: students need to bring in a photo of a Semana Santa celebration in the Spanish Speaking world. They can use news.google in Spanish. Students are going to briefly present their photo at the beginning of class Thursday. If they can't find a photo perhaps they can just explain a celebration somewhere in the Spanish Speaking world.
