I have used this resource with my Heritage Speaker's class during a unit that touches on Afrolatinidad. It is engaging, clear and comprehensible.

I had to leave for a few days this past winter, but I wanted them to have something worthwhile to do, not just time killers/busy work. I really appreciated the different levels offered in the set, so I can differentiate for my different Spanish levels.

My students LOVED this resource last spring. In fact, they asked to continue to learn about more Afro-Latinos after we went through all of the ones included in this set. Highly engaging!

My Spanish 3 students really enjoyed covering these readings! We did a few of them in class! Could easily use for a level 2 or higher. Great for the month of March!
