I just finished a lesson with my 8th grade (1b)
class.
I had the students use their devices and look up current
restaurants and menus in Spain, Mexico, Argentina and Puerto Rico. I had
them denote dishes that were common in each country and then brainstorm
why? I encouraged them to consult the country’s individual maps and think
of geographical differences and influences. We then brought all of the
results together and compared and contrasted the different foods that were
found. The students realized that many of their ideas about foods were
stereotypical and often incorrect.
