These are some of the activities we do to link in to holidays, both American and Hispanic.  Hopefully you can enjoy them!

• Love phrases - Use these to have your students write valentines in Spanish.  Includes some authentic "piropos" as well as some translated Americanisms. Beware of excess cheesiness here.
• Mastery points ideas - Ideas to have your students use the language outside of the classroom.
• Mastery points reporting form (sample)
• Halloween vocabulary - I use this to have them write "ghost stories" around Halloween
• Thanksgiving vocabulary - have them identify all of the foods at dinner for an assignment (incomplete list, but includes most of the basics)
• Navidadlatina (link) - great resource site on Christmas traditions in the Hispanic world.
• Many more to come...

Feel free to use any of the resources here.  If you like something, e-mail me to let me know that someone is looking at this page :) (It will motivate me to post more).
