Cinco de Mayo Activities for Kindergarten? We’ve Got Those!

This set of vocabulary cards and accompanying writing worksheets is designed to help students make sense of the Cinco de Mayo celebration.

Each vocabulary card contains a large-print, easy-to-read word and an image to aid retention. We have also included four accompanying worksheets to have students practice identifying the new vocabulary words and using them in their writing. You can display these on a bulletin board or in a pocket chart center for students to access during your writer’s workshop.

Through this activity, students will show increased vocabulary and understanding of the Cinco de Mayo celebration.
