SEMANA 12: DEL 24 AL 28 DE OCTUBRE (FROM OCTOBER 24 TO 28)

Hola a todos...
It is hard to believe we are about to celebrate Halloween. Wow we are moving to the end of October and we are enjoying those orange colors in trees. " El otoño es una estación de cambios de colores y la caída de hojas hace este tiempo del año muy especial."



ESTAMOS LISTOS PARA CELEBRAR EL DIA DE HALLOWEEN!

  
*** Dear Parents and Guardians:
We are committed to keeping you informed about your child’s education. Please remember that you have access to academic performance information for your child through the Parent Portal.

Students have enjoyed the movie CASI CASI very much last week. Also we have learned some new expressions and we have listed a number of cognates. Here some students' comments about the movie we saw last week:

- "The movie was very entertaining. I loved it. I think Emilio did the right thing by letting Jacquelynn win. It wasn't right by law but right in his heart. The moral is follow your heart." MR- 6th grade 

- "I think that this movie was very good. I probably wouldn't have done what he did, and I liked it. I think that his friends were really good because they went through all that trouble with him just because he wanted to impress a girl." Ch. 6th grade 


- "I think it was a very good comedy.  To me I think they are a nice group of friends. Yes, I liked it. The moral fo the story is to try your best even if it's hard." - Mikal G. 6ht
