36 Biographies of Notable Hispanics / Latinos in Music For Your Students

If your students love when you use music in class, they will love to learn about the life and achievements of their favorite Hispanic (or Hispanic heritage) signer. Here’s our list of biographies in Spanish (and some in English) you can use in class to introduce incredible and talented artists to your classes.

Each Google Slides presentation includes:

  • A photo of the person, their name, and profession
  • Country flag
  • A biography in Spanish
  • Video
  • Práctica con frases – Fill-in-the-blank sentences
  • Comprehension and discussion questions
