Mother's Day in Mexico

5/1/2014

Mother's Day is a very important holiday in Mexico.  It is celebrated on May 10th each year and some bosses even give mothers the day off work (this must be why Mother's Day is always on a Sunday here in the U.S.). 

This year, my students will be learning about how Mother's Day is celebrated in Mexico.  Then they will use some guided writing graphics to describe their mothers.  For my Spanish I students I created a fill in paragraph to help those who need it with the structure.  It is getting close to Final Exam time, so this lesson contains lots of review of things we have previously learned (adjectives of description, giving basic information, talking about likes & dislikes, jobs, etc).

Finally, I have some useful phrases for them to learn and include in "Día de las Madres" cards for their mothers.  Lord knows that mothers of teenagers ESPECIALLY need to feel appreciated! 

Check out the activities I created for my students for "El Día de las Madres" here:

What is the difference between celebrating Mothers day In Mexico from the rest of the world? Well, I am really clueless that’s why I am asking this question. Nonetheless, it was a good thing that you elaborated the reason here and I saw how happy and special day for the country. It seems like Mexicans are really exerting extra effort just to make it extra special for their moms. Well, I can say that this os something that we must commend about their government!
