This video features a fun and engaging song about tamales by BASHO & FRIENDS in collaboration with Cool School. The song introduces children to the cultural significance of tamales through catchy lyrics that describe the making and sharing of this traditional dish. It uniquely engages children by combining music with language learning, making it enjoyable and educational. The topic is important for language learners as it incorporates Spanish vocabulary related to food, cooking, and culture, which helps learners build practical language skills. By integrating music and cultural context, the song enhances memorability and retention, making language learning more effective.- Activity 1: Have children identify and list the different types of tamales mentioned in the song.- Activity 2: Encourage children to draw a picture of a tamale and label its parts using the Spanish vocabulary from the song.- Activity 3: Organize a cooking demonstration where children can assist in making simple tamales, reinforcing the vocabulary learned.
Tamales, tamales, tamales ¿Quién quiere tamalitos? Tamales, tamales Están bien calentitos Tamales, tamales ¿Quién quiere tamalitos? Hay de carne, de puerco, con chile y con queso Si me haces los tamales, yo te doy un beso Lleva horas cocinarlos, hasta duele en los huesos Pero, ¡son tan ricos los tamales! Hay de rajas, de queso, de carne sin hueso, de maíz y de pollo, y comerlos es mi rollo Lleva mantequilla y masa, hojas de elote Acuérdate de la sal y un plato grandote Es una obra de amor, no se hacen fácilmente, pero compartir tamales es un acto excelente. Tamales, tamales, tamales ¿Quién quiere tamalitos? Tamales, tamales Están bien calentitos Tamales, tamales ¿Quién quiere tamalitos?
