Teaching tips
Assign the linked video as a starting point before students begin filling in the fact sheet, since the activity is built around research rather than prior knowledge
Use the Spanish and English versions together to reinforce vocabulary for the same category headings (population/población, currency/moneda, capital/capital) across both languages
Save the coquí seek-and-color page for after the fact sheet is complete, as a lower-pressure culture-focused wrap-up to the research task
