Description of Task:
The Latin Grammys!
Pairs present their group/artist for the "academy" to vote on. Votes are turned in to the judges who make the final decision of the winner of each category.
After all presentations have been given the class will watch selected performances from the videotaped show.
If the timing is right, students can make their own decisions on winners and then afterwards compare with the actual winners - ??
