Two Resources for Exploring Food: Dreaming Spanish Videos & Tasty Recetas

I love the YouTube Channel: Dreaming Spanish! (If you love them too, support Pablo here.) The videos are so comprehensible and easy to understand. Many of my students use the videos for their Tarea Semanal and they really like the videos too, especially the cultural ones (check out these two: Castellers and La Tomatina).

I haven't been using the videos for whole class activities yet, but I am going to try it out. In Spanish 3, we are doing a food unit. These are our Essential Questions:

• ¿Cómo es la comida de los Estados Unidos similar y/o diferente de la comida en algunos países hispanohablantes?
• ¿Cómo se prepara la comida de otros países hispanohablantes?

So, in order to explore Spanish food, students will watch three videos from Dreaming Spanish and they will do this worksheet as they watch. Feel free to make a copy and adapt.

Another resource that students will be exploring is the YouTube Channel Tasty Recetas. This is an Authentic Resource and will be much more challenging for students. They will have to watch two videos and fill out this table. Feel free to make a copy and adapt.
