Spanish II is currently learning about clothing in Spanish. Students put on their very own fashion show, but there was a twist. Instead of having the clothes made out of fabric, the students had to use their creativity to come up with different material to use to design their clothing. Some groups used aluminum foil, others garbage bags. The students had a great time working the runway! In November, the Spanish II and III students spent a day at Lycoming College for their "Modern Language Day." Students met native French, German, and Spanish speakers while learning about the different cultures. They had the opportunity to observe and participate in two different college classes as well. For some students, they realized they really did know Spanish! Others mentioned that they now want to pursue a career with a foreign language. All in all, the students all had a positive experience and now have an enthusiastic outlook on foreign language.
