The first part of the activity is a great interpretive activity, as students listen to your instructions and fold as they go. While many know how to make a fortune teller, they should listen and follow the steps as you go. For step-by-step instructions, click here.
Who didn't love playing with fortune tellers (or cootie catchers) as a kid? Why not bring some childhood fun to Spanish class! A fortune teller is a great way to practice colors and numbers along with any other content you are studying.

Teaching about food is always fun. Kids love to eat and so do I, so they seem to really enjoy learning about different foods and customs all over the world. Along with some videos and other authentic materials, I thought it would be fun to virtually visit some grocery stores across the Spanish-speaking world. Many of my students are lucky enough to travel all over the world, so I am hoping this will inspire them to check out the different supermarkets wherever they go. I know it is one of my favorite parts of traveling - trying new foods, learning about new produce...but maybe I'm just a nerd! Getting the students to a place where they could go shopping was a little daunting. Not only do they need to know the names of foods (our vocabulary focus), but also the types of money used and exchange rates. For a point of reference, students received a copy of a grocery ad from Spain.
