frase del día: cuentos de hadas

We listened to a fairy tale (La bella durmiente) and students retold the story in their own words.

Students had a chance to practice their script and will present to Kimber's class on Thursday the 10th of April with props and costumes.

Tarea: students need to present how to do something simple to the class in Spanish. We're working on improving oral fluency, so students can choose something like "how to make a peanut butter jelly sandwich" or "how to do a yoga move" or something and explain it step by step in Spanish next class.
