What's going on

8th grade Spanish students worked on their WebQuest this week. Next week they will be doing a project surrounding la Quinceañera and will do a gallery walk and a cultural reflection on this unit. They will compare this event to the French debutantes, a sweet sixteen, and a Bah/Bat Mitzvah. Students will investigate what a coming of age looks like across the world.



7th grade Spanish students began their unit with "Pronombres" (Pronouns) and how pronouns are different in Spanish. They will need to be experts in Yo, Tú, Él, Ella, Usted, Nosotros, Vosotros, Ellos, Ellas, and Ustedes in the coming weeks as they will be heavily used when they learn how to conjugate AR, ER, and IR verbs.

6th grade Spanish students have continued with Los Partes del Cuerpo and basic commands. Right now they are learning, :Levantense, por favor" (Please stand up), "Siéntense, por favor" (Please sit down), "Saquen sus carpetas" (Take out your folders), "Abran sus carpetas" (Open your folders), "Entreguen sus hojas" (Hand in your papers), "Pueden retirarse" (You may go). Following these directions in Spanish allows me to determine their interpretive proficiency in Spanish. They are graded on demonstrating their understanding of instructions given orally.
