What is the difference between these slides & other martes del mapa Bell Ringers?

• This set is all in English. In particular, the country, capital nationality and questions about the video are all in English
• The tourism videos either have no speaking or a few have some narration or words included that are in English.
• There is some overlap of the same videos used in this resource with the 2024 & 2022 martes del mapa slides, as well as videos unique to this resource. But these slides are fully in English.
