For example, my textbook talks about murals that are popular in many communities in the U.S. It mentions the influence of Rivera, Orozco, and Siquieros. So I went to the Diego Rivera Museum, http://diegorivera.com/index.php and downloaded a site with about 15 examples of Diego Rivera's work. Then I showed them to the students with the TV monitors. In the movie unit, I used the movie activity, "Movies in Madrid..." (http://www.clta.net/lessons/index.html). In the travel unit, (lakes, mountains, waterfalls, cathedrals, jungles, taking pictures) I used "Fotos de la Argentina." 21 UCLA • Language Materials Project: Links, dictionaries, stories… • Languages on the Web: http://www.lonweb.org/ • http://www.lmp.ucla.edu/OtherSites.aspx?menu=009 for less commonly taught languages • LINKS to: Training and Resource Centers to: National K-12 Foreign Language Resource Center to: Spanish Two-Way Immersion 22 UCLA Languages on the web: http://www.lonweb.org/ 23 A Spanish-language website for teaching children about Mexico is available at http://cuentame.inegi.gob.mx/default.aspx . 24 In the clothing unit, I used "La Tienda En Casa," an e-mail order service from El Corte Inglés in Spain with descriptions, sizes, and colors in Spanish and prices in pesetas. I used just the "Especial Moda" section.
