Now that the school year is in full swing, I have been able to spend more time writing a new news article newspaper. This edition includes information about:
- The Rosenthal arrest in the United States
- The World Cup qualifying rounds in South America
- A Mexican artist exhibition at the Tate Modern
- New Starbucks cafes opening in Costa Rica
Each article has a few links at the end if students want to read more information about the article. My favorite activity with these articles is to do a prediction activity. I give students statements in Spanish, and they predict if the statement is true or false. Then they read the articles, and they correct any true/false statements.
- Hay una exposición en el Tate que se llama Empty Lot y es una construcción geométrica.
- Ahora hay partidos de fútbol para el Mundial. El equipo nacional de Bolivia ganó un partido.
- El equipo nacional de Uruguay ganó dos partidos.
- El ex-vicepresidente de Honduras ahora tiene 10,000 cocodrilos.
- Ahora hay 15 cafés de Starbucks en Costa Rica.
You can also ask follow-up questions to get more of the details of each article. I hope you and your students enjoy it!
