Great!

I really like that this movie features two teenagers - my students are able to relate to that. (For my middle schoolers, they seem to enjoy it more than the "Families of ___," which feature younger kids). There is a lot of good information, and key vocab is highlighted. It is very quickly paced and covers A LOT of different topics - students will struggle to keep up with a worksheet. I tend to let them know they don't need to answer EVERY question. I use the movie to get students thinking about different ideas (cultural foods, foreign currency, etc.) as well as to see that life in large cities in Mexico is perhaps not AS different as they often think. I think it's appropriate to use both in middle schools and at a HS level.

This is a great video for beginning Spanish Language Learners or even for those in levels 2 or 3. The DVD is really interesting and keeps the students' attention. It presents the authentic cultural situations in an informative and engaging manner! I highly recommend this DVD.

I was very disappointed because I thought I was buying the video for just Cinco de Mayo and that it would one in a series entitled "Traditions and Customs of Mexico" because this came up in my search for Cinco de Mayo.

If you decide to return the item and have any questions please call us or email us at help@teachersdiscovery.com. Andrea B

I love videos like this for days when I have a sub- super low-stress, keeps the kids interested, and they still learn stuff even though they undoubtedly have a sub that doesn't speak any Spanish :)
