¡Hola estudiantes! ¡Qué sorpresa más linda! (What a lovely surprise!) Gracias por tu mensaje, Julia y Lupe. Estoy contenta que estén bien, y que estén disfrutando este año en St. Paul. (I'm very happy that you all are doing well, and that you're enjoying this year at St. Paul.)
Qué pena that you haven't gotten un(a) profesor(a) de español yet. I hope that Ferndale is able to find a great one for you soon, and that you are practicing in the meantime! I'm still adding canciones to the playlist on Grooveshark for la clase de espanol, so feel free to go check them out, or leave me a comment if there are songs that you've discovered that I should add!
I was thinking about Ustedes recently en el 1 y el 2 de noviembre, el Día de los Muertos! Fui al Mexicantown para ver las ofrendas, or altars, that different people and businesses created, and had a lot of fun looking at the different sites. Compré pan de muerto, the special bread that we ate last year, and brought it to school for my language arts students to try. I also bought some tamales con queso y jalapeños muy deliciosos en La Gloria Bakery, y bebé (drank) chocolate español en el Cafe con Leche. Compré postales (postcards) de Día de los Muertos en Xochi's Gift Shop, también; pueden verlos aquí:
It's been fun teaching 7th grade language arts so far, especially since I'm getting to bring in a lot of the ideas and materials that we worked on en la clase de español, since our current unit is on immigrants! Here's a bulletin board that the class and I have created of famous immigrants from all over the world, in case you want to check it out!
Les extraño a todos (I miss you all), and am glad you wrote!
¡Gracias, y cuídense mucho (take care)!

ReplyDelete¡Hola Lucio! ¡Gracias por escribir! Yo estoy bien, pero muy ocupada (busy) con mis clases. Como esta tu nueva escuela? Te gustan tus maestros? Todavia estudias español, o miras Mi Vida Loca? ;) Hopefully you're finding some good clases de ciencias (o meteorologia!) en tu escuela.
ReplyDeleteI hope to come to St. Paul's concierto de Navidad en diciembre, so hopefully I'll see you there to hear more about what you've been doing and learning!
¡Cuídate mucho, y suerte con tus clases!
Wow Gracias por tu quick reply :D my school has been muy bien here and yo soy muy feliz that Bronson And Maddie are here with me, si me gustan mi maestros ellos son muy simpatico and they really do care about the students, No sadly yo soy not taking spanish class this year, i was originally going to, but it got replaced with some other class :/ and about the Christmas Concert, it depends on what day that is, cuz i might not be able to make it because i am in the choir and i have to sing in that christmas concert :( but maybe ill see tu some other time!!
