LA COMIDA
Student Instructions
Overview: Congratulations! Univision (a Spanish-langauge T.V. channel) has caught wind of what a
talented chef you are. They would like to welcome you and one to two of your chef friends onto their
talkshow ¡Despierta, America! But don’t get too excited just yet, there are several things that you need
to do to prepare yourself for this big break.
Task:
1. Introducción a la comida y el país de origen: You and/or 2-3 others will research a dish or beverage
from any Spanish speaking region of the world. In your research, you must find the answer to
the following questions, and write them in complete Spanish sentences.
a. ¿Cómo se llama la comida/ la bebida?
b. ¿De dónde es la comida/ la bebida?
2. La receta: After researching a particular dish, you must write out:
A. Ingredientes: What ingredients do you need?
B. Direcciones: What are the directions or steps to make it.
Write out a 5 (minimum) to 10(maximum) step recipe telling exactly how one makes this food.
a. If is it a simple dish, you must expand it to 5 steps.
b. If it is a complicated dish, you should condense to 10 steps maximum.
c. You must conjugate each verb in the “yo” or “tú” form.
d. Make sure to use ordinal numbers (primero, segundo, etc.) and adverbs (entonces, luego, etc) to
explain the order in which you take each step or add each ingredient.
3. La presentación: After your research and recipe translation is complete, you and your group
members must write out a script IN SPANISH of what you are going to say to present your recipe to the
world when you are on air. You may present this in class with a poster, Power Point, or you may tape and
edit this at home and present it in class. The presentation must include the following pieces:
a. A step-by-step walk through of how you make the dish/ drink.
b. A brief explanation of where it comes from and the food in that country.
c. Each group member must have roughly the same number of lines.
d. Some sort of visual display of the food/ drink being made. (You can use real food for this part, or
you can create props using pictures, play food, etc)
e. All text must be in Spanish.
CRÉDITO EXTRA: Bring in la comida or la bebida for the class to try. You can either bring what you have
prepared yourself, or you can buy la comida or la bebida at a grocery store or Spanish/ Latin American
restaurant. (15 points)
Student Learning Assessment: Students will be assessed on their written , speaking and
