Today in my 6th grade class (1st years), as we were going over vocabulary, one kid interrupts me to ask me "Que es zanahoria de hielo?", Hmmmm I ask him to repeat b/c I don't get it but another kid figured it out and added "en la casa" at which point a few others got it and were all saying "si, si" and adding, agua, mucho frio, hielo, casa, zanahoria! Finally I figured it out- they were all circumlocuting "icicle". We then had a great time learning the word "Carambano"! When would you ever teach that word in a regular/non-OWL class? So much fun! I love OWL! Stel
