Hey Cats! Ms. Miranda-Blanco always has something fun and engaging going on in herSpanish Social Studies class and last week was no different! Here is her description of their project: "We were reading and analyzing texts about Guatemala and its culture. At the end, we recreated a Guatemalan street market. Students researched Guatemalan handicrafts, built one, wrote an informational poster, and created their stand for the market. They had to also demonstrate mastery of a certain language topic from this unit." We loved the creativity the students displayed and the hard work that they put in with their teams! Great work Ms. Miranda-Blanco and Team 8-3 students!
