TitleInauguration Day Resources for Spanish Teachers
Body
A MoreTPRS listserv user contributes the following for the coming Inauguration Day:

www.univision.com has quite a bit, including a multiple choice quiz in Spanish that tests how much your students know about Obama.

The Febrero issue of People en español has a brief article on Latino support for Obama on p32 (including his Spanish-speaking half sister) and a full-page article on "Obamamania" and all the Obama related products you can buy, from dog bowls to skate boards (p17).

And for music lovers, youtube has both Mariachi and Reggaeton music videos promoting the President-elect.

Lastly, this site that provides pdf versions of newspaper front pages from around the world will probably be a good resource on Tuesday as well: http://www.newseum.org/todaysfrontpages/flASH .
