When teaching the locations of the Spanish-speaking countries, you can have your students memorize these simple sayings: Central America - General (Guatemala) Electric ( El Salvador) Has (Honduras) No (Nicaragua) Central (Costa Rica) Power (Panama) South America- Vacations (Venezuela) Comes (Colombia) Every (Ecuador) Passover (Peru) But (Bolivia) Christians (Chile) And (Argentina) Presbyterians (Paraguay) Understand (Uruguay) The Carribean- Come (Cuba) Dance (Dominican Republic) Party (Puerto Rico). Use an overhead and a map to show how these sayings not only help them to remember the names of the countries, but their locations as well.
