In our Spanish 2 and Spanish 5 classes, we're not just learning the language – we're immersing ourselves in the rich and diverse cultures of the Spanish-speaking world!
In Spanish 2, students explored online Spanish retailers, examining products based on price, fabric, and sizing. Through this activity, students practiced their language skills, but also learned to appreciate how these elements intertwine, especially in the context of learning a new language. Spanish 5 students designed a movie poster that is a fun and meaningful way to reflect the essence of the story while honoring the cultural context.
Learning a language isn't just about words; it's about understanding people, their stories, and the world they come from. #worldlanguageeducation #goeast
