This resource is a great launching point to talk about superstitions and traditions, as well as leading into students making their own propósitos. Since there are multiple levels of readings, I use it with both Spanish 1 and Spanish 2.

My students really enjoying doing this because they learned a new tradition from a different country and it got them out from doing the normal boring stuff! :) Thank you!

I used this in my "celebrations" unit, where students voted on the most unique celebration in the Spanish-speaking world.

I love using this resource in the first week after winter vacation. We use it to set goals for the year while making cultural comparisons.
