8th grade students have continued their first mini-novela of the year called "Tumba." This book features events surrounding El día de los muertos (Day of the Dead). Each chapter will take us into new linguistic and cultural territory with regards to this important Mexican celebration. This week we read the following chapters:
* Capítulo siete: "El mapa" (The Map)
* Capítulo ocho: "Explorar" (Explore)
7th grade Spanish students are now into their third story unit of the trimester. Students learn different structures in Spanish with each cuento (tale). Students are asked guiding questions both written and orally and are asked to act in different scenarios each chapter. Students have completed the following stories with the structures indicated:
* Kahoot Review of stories (A Marcos le gusta hablar, Perezosa, Los gatos azules, El hombre rico, & Conocemos a Lucía).
6th graders have finished their second MovieTalk unit of the trimester. Students learn different structures in Spanish with each chapter. Students are asked guiding questions both written and orally. Our first MovieTalks were:
