Culture Resources

Our mission at Futura is to get students excited about the Spanish language. Our goal is for students to be engaged and want to continue learning by choosing Spanish as their high school elective, continuing classes at the college level, maybe even studying abroad and to ultimately become lifelong language learners. Culture lessons are a great way to pique their interest! Please use these resources as a supplement to the traditional lessons and combining them as much as possible. For example- teaching new vocabulary related to the holiday or incorporating reading, writing, and conversation practices connected to the culture lessons.
     Note: Please select the age-appropriate activities for your students. For example- color by number sheets for Elementary and reading practices for middle school.
