Before watching the video, use what you already know or have seen before to guess when each holiday is celebrated. Write your best guess in the second column.

Then, watch the video and listen for the dates. Write the correct date in Spanish in the third column and in English in the last column.

Do not use subtitles the first time you watch. You may use subtitles if you watch the video a second time. The goal is to practice listening for dates and numbers.
