The first artist we will be learning about is Shakira, who received a nomination for the 2011 Latin Grammys. Students have to “fill in” the biography with information about Shakira on the attached sheet. Students respond to prompts and write sentences using the above verbs. Ej. Shakira nació el 2 de febrero de 1977 en Colombia. We went to the computer lab and students had time to investigate Shakira and answer questions about her. Anything they didn't finish in class is homework.
