Want your Spanish students to learn about Hispanic Heritage Month , but  reading comprehension is getting boring in your Spanish class?  Turn it into a game!  This mystery-solving reading about famous Hispanics goes from dull to exciting as students work together and move around the room to solve a mystery!  This is a simple “print and go” with no work for the teacher!  

   Students play the role of journalists, all trying to “scoop” each other by getting a story first!  There is to be a big Lifetime Achievement Award given to someone of Hispanic heritage, and the journalists want to find out who is winning the award first!  They will read about the 10 candidates.  While they read the parts, they are also looking for “code words”.  Students record the code words on a special answer sheet that will eventually lead them to solving the mystery of who the award winner is, and whoever figures it out first gets the scoop!  It’s so much fun! 

    After, you can decide which of the 4 follow-up activities you want to do with your students.  There are 4; a True or False Activity to check for basic comprehension, a graphic organizer for students to organize notes about famous hispanos, a “tell me in your own words” activity,  and a writing follow up where students use their reading comprehension and critical thinking to invent an explanation for why the voting board chose this person as the winner.  Answer key to the True/False is also included.  Best of all?  If there’s something you’d like to change for your students, you are free to edit!

The reading cards are written in Spanish for Novice High/Intermediate Low.  The questions are written in English, and answers will be in English as well.  The instructions and mission are written in English.
