3. Why are we on a trip around the city? A touring group of 6 th grade students from MSTI 131 are on a field trip around Mexico. In in the city of Guadalajara, they are split into groups and must visit a market place, school house, and a park by the end of the day. In order to enjoy the fiesta that is planned for their last night in the city, they must explore and learn about each location! Along the way, students must be careful not to lose their money, their map, or any members of their group, because this will slow them down. Of course each group wants to make it to the fiesta first in order to enjoy the freshest burritos and the opening songs of the mariachi band! The questions include Spanish vocabulary about the classroom, food, and recreation, as well as some commonly used verbs. Be sure to know colors and numbers as well! Good luck and let the exploration begin! Home Page

4. How do you play? The goal of the game is for your group to make it to the end of the board first in order to reach the fiesta. Form groups of two or more students, as long as there are no more than five groups. Each group can work together to come up with the correct answers. On each turn, the group will choose any question numbered 1 through 25 and answer using their knowledge of Spanish vocabulary. If the question is answered correctly, a card will be drawn and that player’s team can advance the number of spaces on the card. If the question is answered incorrectly, a card will not be drawn and that group must wait until their next turn for another question. Some cards will say that your group has encountered a problem. These cards could include that the group lose a turn, stay where they are, or move backward: Losing a turn means that group will not be given the opportunity to answer a question or advance on their next turn If the group must stay where they are, they do not advance, but may answer a question on their next turn. If the group must move backward, do so according to the number of spaces specified on the card Return
