Grade Level:

7–12

Student Level:

Middle School

¡Te Toca A Ti! is a Spanish language competition videoconference in which student teams compete. With works of art as visual prompts, participants practice their speaking skills by using complete sentences to describe and respond to what they see. This is an ideal extension to the museum's Spanish Art program or can be used as a stand-alone activity to enhance conversational ability.

Please note - this program is conducted entirely in Spanish, and it is most suitable for advanced Spanish learners.
