I needed an emargency sub plan on Cinco de Mayo and this was perfect for my Spanish Speaking substitute to follow. The students were engaged and the substitute thanked me for leaving a fun lesson!

This worked super well with my 5th graders. I made a slideshow out of part of it, and it was so easy to follow that I used it the first day with my sub. Thank you!

Great way to present the "Real" Cinco de Mayo. I turned it into a scavenger hunt and students loved it!
