El juramento a la bandera

This Scaffolded Literacy presentation is intended to teach the Juramento a la bandera to your students in Spanish--a perfect activity for Hispanic Heritage Month!

The presentation includes a brief history of the author (Edward Bellamy), then works through each line of the pledge--analyzing its purpose and asking questions to dig deeper. Finally, it compares the US Pledge to the Juramento a la bandera de México and presents students with a guided writing assignment to write their own Pledge to someone or something, modeled after the Pledge of Allegiance.

A detailed teacher's script is included that contains additional information about each slide and further reflection questions.
