Chido! Tracy Patterson Profesora de español North Medford High School "El respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz." Benito Juárez 1900 N. Keene Way Drive Medford, OR 97504 541-842-1249 From: ola-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ola-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Nanosh Lucas Sent: Friday, March 02, 2012 4:17 PM To: ola@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ola] This, from a student Here is a reflection from a student I thought I would share. I asked them to assess their commitment to speaking and learning Spanish over the past five weeks. What, specifically, are you doing outside of class to improve/practice your Spanish? Out of my class I use Spanish in my house talking to my mom, or in practice I sing the Puedo ir al baño song or text over the phone a conversation in Spanish just to confuse my friends with my Spanish vocabulary. I have shocked myself with how simple and easy it has become for me to communicate in this new language. I can actually get a point across and fully understand what some people ask me or speak to me. I think that deserves an A because at the beginning of the year I could not do any of this. N
