Title: Easter Activities for Spanish Class
Body:
High school Spanish teacher and blogger Catharyn writes, “As a public school teacher, semana santa and las pascuas are topics I typically tended to steer away from in Spanish class. I did this because I didn't want to worry about bringing religion into my classroom. This was so narrow minded. When exploring the culture of the Spanish speaking world, to ignore Catholicism, its holidays, and cultural practices would just be ridiculous.” Read her blog post for ideas and resources for exploring Latin American traditions for Semana Santa and Easter: http://www.solazucar.com/2017/04/ideas-for-studying-semana-santa-las.html
