Can you say "yo gané"? Señor Lowe's Spanish 1 class has been "muy ocupado" this week, learning about the articles and grammatical gender and number through La Lotería, a Bingo-style game popular throughout Mexico. They have also been practicing their pronunciation and fluency through the Pledge of Allegiance in Spanish and the National Anthem of Argentina. There was also a surprise visit from Profe's Spanish 4 class, who came to demonstrate their self-written scenarios of a visit to the doctor. Remember, "si no sanas hoy, sanarás mañana!"
