Approaches:
This text is read in Spanish quite slowly, and in short sentences which are accessible and supported visually in separate scenes. It lends itself to a sequence of activities (potentially over several lessons) for different skills, as described in attached file

It is therefore useful for training memory skills, but it also includes more than a list of nouns, so it can have a grammatical focus on eg prepositions
