Photo Essay: A “Family Favorite” Recipe Project for Heritage Spanish Class

Food is by far my favorite form of cultural expression and after having several class parties, I saw that my heritage students took great pride in certain recipes they love to eat and cook.

Looking for a fun way to celebrate Día de la Inde

Looking for a fun way to celebrate Día de la Independencia? Check out this Glyph Reading for advanced Spanish speakers. Students will learn about el Grito de Independencia. This reading about Independence Day in Latin America covers not just Mexican history but also Central American history too.⁠
⁠
Students will also learn five new vocab terms.⁠
⁠
This requires around 100 minutes of class time- you can divide it out as one day for the reading and questions and another day to do the glyph coloring according to their answers.⁠

Most teenagers are trying to figure out who they really are, and how they fit in. We want them to embrace all sides of their culture, but it’s important to acknowledge that there can be some insecurity about how good their language skills really are.⁠
⁠
Helping students to understand and express their hybrid identities is a key aspect of a heritage Spanish class. We want to create an environment where students feel safe to share the difficulties of being bilingual. ⁠

Being bilingual is beautiful and it comes in many

Being bilingual is beautiful and it comes in many shapes and sizes. Students should feel proud of their ability to understand and communicate in two different languages. They should also be proud of their family members who, while on their own language journey, can do the same. Nurturing heritage languages is a worthwhile endeavor as the vast majority of heritage languages die out by the third generation. Without a proper growth mindset, heritage speakers can lose sight of the necessity of biliteracy, especially when English is their dominant language (a language that is used worldwide). It’s so important to remind students that small progress is progress and that bilingualism is an amazing achievement.⁠
