Proyecto de festivales y fiestas– Español IV

You will research a festival (religious or secular) in Spain or Latin America. Find at least 3 websites (one being entirely in Spanish, with no English version available) to do your research. Then, present the information, along with at least 3 images, in a brochure or website created in Publisher, a slide show using Power Point, or some other presentational format. All presentations must be turned in electronically by email or to Dropbox. A bibliography must also be included.

In addition, you must bring in one thing to share with the class that is authentic or a replica of something important in the festival. Examples include clothing, food, music, a dance, a song, a statue, a game, a craft, etc.

Include 6 or more of the following elements in the project presentation:

  • Name and purpose of the festival
  • Main event(s)
  • Guests or positions of honor
  • Music and dance associated with the festival
  • Colors associated with the festival and history/significance
  • Foods associated with the festival
  • Offerings or sacrifices
  • Time of year of the festival; length of the festival
  • Crafts and/or games
  • Other? See Mrs. Bas.

The presentations will be in class Wednesday, December 12. An outline or preliminary version may be turned in by 11:59 p.m., Friday, December 7, in order to receive comments.

This project counts as a test grade and a separate oral participation grade. Refer to the rubrics below to see how the project will be graded. For each day the project is late, each grade will be reduced by one letter grade (3 points on the 18 point scale.) Pleasesee Mrs. Baswithanyquestionsorconcerns.
