SEMANA 14: DEL 7 AL 11 DE NOVIEMBRE (WEEK 14: FROM NOVEMBER 7-11)

QUE TAL!

October is already over and looking back at the month, it was busy but fun. November seems a pretty much the same: a new and fun project, "tareas", unit test, Thanksgiving break, a lot of "conversaciones" in Spanish and a "fiesta". Yes, you hear it right. WE WILL HAVE A FIESTA. Students will take a letter home to inform parents about this activity.

Let's talk about our new fun project first: A virtual "libro" by the students based on the short film called: "La leyenda del espantapajaros" . The students will be able to be creative by making their own story. They will use some vocabulary studied this week. I know you will love this project. I have two coaches, one student from 7th grade and another from 8th grade, working on this so they will help us.
