Spanish 5th Six weeks Project

The Spanish six weeksproject will consist of students researching a Spanish speaking country and giving an oral presentation over their country. It must include the following information:

  • Name of the country
  • Traditional food
  • Traditional music
  • Traditions (ex: Holidays, birthdays, other traditional celebrations, etc.)
  • Map of the country
  • Flag of the country

Students will be graded based on their oralpresentation which needs to include all the information above, must be 5 mins, and student must refrain from reading as much as possible. This project will be presented in English, therefore I expect students to really research and learn about their country so that they present in a knowledgeable manner.

Students will present orally to me but they will submit an essay to their homeroom class e-mail for Language Arts class (Ms. Spotser).If the student is going to be absent, please ensure that students send their Essay via the class room e-mail the day of or before the due date.

**This project is due by March 24, 2017**
