Want your beginning students to read in Spanish and stick to the thematic curriculum of “Qué te gusta hacer”, “Cómo eres” and “La escuela”? Lacking material in Spanish that is comprehensible about the Day of the Dead? Tumba combines both goals.

This reader is perfect for Spanish 1 or Spanish 1b at the end of October. Spanish 2 students will enjoy it for its readability.
