¡Feliz Otoño!

Happy autumn to all! We've been having a great year so far! 

In elementary Spanish, we are finishing up el alfabeto and beginning with números y colores. The kids have all been doing great! We're having lots of fun and learning lots of new songs, as well as interacting with new words in class. 

In junior high Spanish, we have already finished our first block. 6 weeks went really quickly! We're starting all over again with the second group of students, just finishing the alphabet and getting started with colors. 

PE is going well. The girls are looking forward to the Powder Puff football game coming up soon. We've been having fun learning some football basics! 

In 6th grade Bible, we are just about finished learning about different worldviews and how important it is to develop our own worldview. Pretty soon, we'll start studying the Old Testament. 

All in all, it has been a great start to the year!

¡Feliz Día de Pascua!

Happy Easter to everyone! We have been working hard en la clase de español. Elementary students have completed several different projects, presentations, and skits.
    In 3rd grade, students learned about lots of different places in our community and completed a project in which they were able to create their ideal ciudad. The students got very creative and their presentations were fun to watch. 
   4th graders recently performed a skit with a partner utilizing their escuela vocabulary words. It was fun to see how far the students have come in their Spanish pronunciation! 
   The 5th graders used their creativity and comida vocabulary to create a menu for their very own restaurant. They turned out great!
   In jr. high, 7th grade students got to use the iPad cart for a day to create a collage for a Spanish-speaking country of their choice. They looked amazing and the students learned a lot! 
   That's just a quick update as to what we have been working on lately. I hope you all enjoy your vacation!
