Students should circle the name, where the character lives, and what they like. 2. Look at the map of Mexico and note the language spoken. 3. Say, trace and write how to say hello. 4. Read the passage about tacos. 5. Students make a pair and make a taco for their partner. Ask each other 'What do you want?' Choose 3 ingredients only and answer 'I want _______.'
