Have a wonderful April break!

8th grade Spanish students continued their second "Cuentos" unit in which they will read and talk about short stories in Spanish. Our stories for this week included:
* Conocemos a Lucía (Meet Lucy)
* El secreto en la mochila (The Secret in the Backpack)

7th grade Spanish students ended their MovieTalk unit with an assessment featuring the following clip:
* ¡Guacamole! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNJdJIwCF_Y
Students had to create their own MovieTalk and tell the story of this 1-minute film using the structures we have learned.
* Students learn different structures in Spanish with each chapter. Students are asked guiding questions both written and orally. If you are unfamiliar with how MovieTalk helps kids learn Spanish faster, I have provided a link below for more information:

*** Moore Time Spanish has had continued success and we are in our ninth week of meetings. Meetings will alternate between Miss Parker and Ms. Twomey. New members are always welcome! This is a great opportunity to practice conversational Spanish in a relaxed setting with friends. It is also a wonderful way to earn extra credit in foreign language!

6th grade Spanish students continued reading their new mini-novela "Las aventuras de Isabela." We reviewed chapters 9-10 and we completed chapter 10 this week. Students were asking guiding questions and acted out the stories using Reader's Theatre. These chapters included:
* Capítulo diez: Sam
* Kahoot review: Chapters 9-10
