World Language Day!

Filed Under Spanish, World Languages, YuperStars

Today, 5th graders are celebrating the languages and cultures they study with games, song, dance, and good food! I had the pleasure of accompanying a group of about 60 5th grade students to Little Village (26th street), where we practiced reading, writing, and speaking Spanish. We read signs, bought bread, candy, groceries, and asked people questions to fill out the treasure hunt activity that Ms. Guerrero and Ms. Ramos had prepared. Number one most used phrase of the day: “¿Cuanto cuesta?”

Ms. Guerrero prepared an online Jeopardy game the day before to review Spanish phrases and Mexican history. Great web app for Jeopardy, by the way! Much easier to set up and use than PowerPoint!
