Extra Credit: Las doce uvas de la suerte (The 12 lucky grapes)
Share this Spanish tradition with your family or friends! On New Year's Eve, Nochevieja, for each chime of the clock in the New Year Spaniards across Spain will eat a grape, each symbolizing luck and prosperity for the coming year. In class, we practiced using marshmallows - try at home with grapes! 1. Using what you learned in class, explain to your friends/family why this tradition began. (Grape farmers in Alicante...) 2. For each person participating, you need 12 grapes. (The grapes here in the US tend to be quite larger than those in Spain...if they are big, cut them in half!) 3. Follow the video above, and at the end shout ¡Feliz Año Nuevo! (Happy New Year!) 4. For extra credit, either bring in or email Ms. Pipe a picture of you completing the tradition. Additionally, for each person participating write one sentence about their experience. Do they like the tradition? Would they do it again? What do they think about the origin of the tradition? 5. If completed, you may choose 5 points on a quiz or 10 tickets for extra credit. ¡Feliz Año Nuevo!
