Overview of the Year So Far
We have some very exciting projects going on in our Spanish classes! Our 3rd Grade and 8th Grade classes have ePals in Spain. The 8th grade class has already sent their first e-mail, and we are waiting for a response. The 3rd grade classes have written TWO e-mails and one postcard! They have received postcards from their ePals as well. This is such an exciting time in our Spanish classes. I am working on getting ePals for other grades as well.
Our Spanish Club is also working on some special projects. We did OUTSTANDING selling pulseras, or in English bracelets, made by children in an orphanage in Nigaragua. The proceeds from the sale go to help fund education to these children. The bracelets are $5 and come with a name and picture of the child who made it. The founders of the organization were so impressed with our efforts! We raised $1,890 which was one of the most successful sales they have ever seen in over 260 schools. The money we raised has allowed one of the students in Nicaragua to attend college for a full four years! For more information on this project check out www.pulseraprojects.org.
Also, our 7th grade students were on the news this year. KTVE (Channel 10) did a story on technology in education and came to film our 7th graders working on a weather forecast on Prezi.
