The Last Classes of Español

During our last classes, we studied Los Días de la Semana (days of the week). We also reviewed parts of the curriculum through songs and games they students love. Finally, we closed up with a quick lesson on how to dance salsa and merengue... and you should have seen them dancing!

Students also had a chance to visit the Spanish area in Second Grade during the last few weeks of the semester. In two occassions, they had the opportunity to explore bilingual books. The purpose was to encourage curiosity about cultural subjects such as Day of the Dead or the biography of Roberto Clemente.

They certain were not reading! They were just looking at pictures... and also a map of the Caribbean Sea!
