Currently, my 1A’s are learning about leisure time activities. One of the things I like to discuss with them are pastimes in the Spanish-speaking world and how music and dance play a big role in many of the activities we do in the Spanish-speaking world. Every year I do a unit on music and dance and it’s always a lot of fun because the students get to listen to music and dance!
Here are some online resources I use for this unit:

Here are some online activities I have created using the above sites- I posted them to teacherspayteachers since they did take me a very long time to create- sorry!
