Unit Wrap-up

What better way to wrap up this unit than with a party? I think my students will have great fun preparing and participating in a Caribbean Fiesta. With food, beverages and music associated with the 3 islands, we can decorate, eat and dance our way to a satisfying ending for our unit.

Thanks for the Unit!

I thoroughly enjoyed your writing about the other Spanish-speaking countries and how to introduce other Latin cultures to your students. Thank you for your hard work! I would love to participate in an initiative like this.
