8th grade Spanish students will start learning about the hispanic tradition of La Quinceañera, also called fiesta de quince años, fiesta de quinceañera, quince años or simply quince, is the celebration of a girl's fifteenth birthday in parts of Latin America and elsewhere in communities of people from Latin America. This birthday is celebrated differently from any other birthday, as it marks the transition from childhood to young womanhood.
7th grade Spanish students played "Object Memory" in Spanish in which they tried to recall the location of objects in the class. This reinforces their acquisition of prepositions, articles, and Object vocab. Reminder: Students will be tested on this unit Friday, January 17th. This is a change from the intial test date as we had to adjust the schedule for Smarter Balanced/ACCESS testing.
6th grade Spanish students have started "Los Partes del Cuerpo" (Parts of the Body). The vocabulary is more extensive than previously learned in elementary school and students are learning commands that go along with the vocab, "Raise your hands," "Lift your right leg," etc. Students will also be learning the location of body parts (prepositions) such as "your hair is on your head," "your teeth are in your mouth," etc.
