Mexican Night Before Christmas podcast

A new podcast episode! The Mexican version of the Night Before Christmas. I usually read this to my students but this will be a better way for the students to listen to it and follow along. Plus the sound effects helps them understand some of the Spanish words they may not know. I'm excited to share this with them in December.

Mi Amor Por Ti podcast

I'm always looking for something to do with my students around each of the holidays that relates to Spanish. At times it can be difficult to find things at their level. So I thought this would be a great way to do a story with them that is new and different. My first podcast covers the holiday of Valentine's Day. I read a short book entitled Mi Amor Por Ti by Susan L. Roth. It is a cute little book that tells the story of two mice using numbers and animals to help them measure their love for each other.
