Well this is your opportunity to choose one of those countries, research it, and then report back to the class about the country you picked! Have fun with this project and include as many details as you can about your country!

3.  You will chose one Spanish speaking country.  Then you will research it using the given websites and put the information into a PowerPoint presentation, or a poster.  You will include the following information: -Population, Capital, What the weather is like, What a typical school day is like, Flag of the country, money used there, name of Country, what there is to do for fun, 5 interesting places to visit, 5 interesting things to do in that country, 5 places of interests,10 pictures, and two Youtube videos showcasing your Spanish speaking country. ● Once complete, you will present your information to the class (in Spanish) and receive an oral grade.

4. 1.Explore the first website on the next page to find a Spanish speaking country you find to be interesting. When you have a country please see your teacher and sign up for that country.

7. You were asked to only research one Spanish speaking country. I would like you to now take out a piece of paper and write about 10 different Spanish speaking countries that you know about, after hearing all of the presentations from your classmates. From doing one research assignment, we have learned a plethora of new knowledge! Isn’t learning great!

8. You can modify this web quest for any level of Spanish that you would like. I have designed it for a level 2 Spanish class. If you would like to use it with a lower level, you may not want to require them to speak entirely in Spanish. For more advanced levels you may want to require them to teach a lesson on their country. The possibilities are endless here! I hope you have enjoyed this!
