Instructional Ideas
- To save on prep-time ask family volunteers to search for pictures needed for the lesson
- Create an Ecuador-themed bulletin board that showcases the country, pictures you've collected, as well as labels and descriptions in Spanish
- Group pupils heterogeneously based on Spanish language proficiency, allowing individuals to assist and learn from one another
Classroom Considerations

- Participants should be familiar with the Spanish language
Pros
