March Madness Song Bracket: Locura De Marzo

12/6/2016

19 Comments

 

I am inviting Spanish classrooms across the globe to participate in my March Madness tournament!
Here is how it will work:
- I will create a bracket of 16 authentic songs: i.e.- El mismo Sol, Vivir Mi Vida, etc.
-I will post that bracket here on my site and update it as the month progresses.  

-There will be a schedule posted for Spanish classrooms to follow.  
-Each day for 16 days two songs will square off head to head.

-Students will listen to each of the songs posted and then vote in an online poll as to which song they like better. That song will advance to the next round. 
-Students can comment on blog posts in the target language about what they liked about the songs. I will monitor blog posts for appropriate comments. :)
-If I can get volunteers, classrooms can put together a short fake news reports in Spanish about the results of each "match".  They could even include a fake interview with the musical artists asking them how it felt to win, lose, etc.  I will share those news reports for classrooms to view. Great comprehensible input opportunity!  Great project for a group of advanced students, or native Spanish speakers!
***​I hope you all can join us, I think your students will have a blast! 
Look for more details in Febuary on my blog, or follow me on Facebook to stay up to date!

​Do you want to get actively involved in this process? 
-Comment on this blog post for the songs you'd like to see included in the bracket.

-Email me at [email protected] if you have a group of students who would like to make a short news report on one of the song results!
