I teach World History in a Spanish Immersion program, and my biggest struggle is finding useful resources in Spanish beyond the textbook. To this end I have translated a lot from SHEG (mentioned above) and the History Blueprint Sites of Encounter project from UCI, which I am linking here and hope you all find useful with lessons already written and scripted for you.
However I started to search for resources in Spanish and did not find a lot. Here are a few that I would find useful, mostly YouTube videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZREwiY8j0Gg Social Studies Weekly has a brief snapshot overview of East Asia in Spanish. While this is less than 2 minutes long and only gives very brief and basic information, it could make a good introduction to the unit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XXBd5dJN7g News Culture piece on women and beauty in China. This is interesting given our discussions in the Gender and Generation seminar just completed; this piece talks about how today in China women still aspire to pale skin and thin bodies, but that now some women work out for a more sculpted look, and many gravitate toward plastic surgery, especially on eyelids and noses. It discusses a preference for bright or pastel colored clothing, and the need to be beautiful to find a good husband, but that also today women are more empowered than in the past, able to work and make more independent decisions about their lives.
https://www.tucuentofavorito.com/category/leyendas-de-asia/ A site called "Tu cuento favorito" has literature from around the world, including this collection of legends from Asia. Here there are 6 different stories from around China, Japan, and Bhutan. I would maybe jigsaw this giving each group a different story to present to the class, and then discuss how they reflect cultural values and norms specific to Asia, and in what ways they are universal. Unfortunately, the website has two confusing links in the middle of the list of stories, so the teacher needs to be very clear about how they link it to the assignment for students to use.
