Spanish Class Word Searches

Ten vocabulary units from a Spanish class, in about the order a textbook brings them: Spanish Greetings and Spanish Numbers, the Spanish Cognates a reader of English can already guess, Spanish Verbs, La Familia, Spanish Food and Spanish Clothing, then Spanish Holidays, Christmas in Spanish and the Spanish-Speaking Countries with their capitals. Day of the Dead in November and Las Posadas in December, two Mexican feasts, sit beside them.

Spanish is the official language of twenty countries, from Mexico and Spain to Equatorial Guinea in Africa, whose capital Malabo is on the countries list. Its spelling follows the sound closely, so a learner who knows the letters can read an unfamiliar word aloud, and the written accent marks a stressed syllable that breaks the usual rule. The Royal Spanish Academy, founded in Madrid in 1713, still publishes the dictionary and the spelling rules.
