My Second Latino Scene Book: 50 Two-Minute Scenes for Young Children

My Second Latino Scene Book builds on M. Ramirez's first scene book, with longer, more challenging every day situations. Like its predecessor, the scenes in this book are populated with characters familiar to kids and present conflicts and dilemma they can relate to, such as being the new kid at school, first time away at camp, worrying about how you look in braces, and cleaning a messy bedroom. At the beginning of each book, are acting guidelines to help children play the scenes effectively. Questions at the end of each scene encourage them to delve deeper into the situation and the characters, sparking interesting classroom discussion illustrations throughout for students to color. As with the monologue books, M. Ramirez weaves commonly used Spanish words and idioms into essentially English material.
