Planning and Organizing Research
It is time to start lesson three. At this point, students have acquired knowledge and understanding about the Hispanic calendar and the definition and aspects of Culture. Moreover, students should also be familiar with the names and location of the Hispanic countries, the different components of culture, and other important facts related to the Spanish language. This information gives students an idea of what they are going to research for the final project, teamwork presentations, a research on a Hispanic country's culture. Students will apply their critical thinking skill and their creativity to explain the influence of a main component over one or more different components. By analyzing a culture main component, students can understand activities and behavior of that culture or country. For example, the geographical location of a country can be crucial for its economy.
Below, I am presenting an example of a graphic organizer using Popplet, a tool for organization. Students can follow this example, modify it, or create a new concept map to explain their research. Remember this is a organization tool; therefore, I require more than 10 images and 15 or more Popplets.
I am also providing more examples for cultural research and the names of the Hispanic countries. In order to enjoy this assignment, try to focus on positive aspects of the culture you selected.
