I can’t believe
it is the end of the year and I am very excited to see how much Spanish each of
the students from OWS have learned from September to December. I’ve watched them in the hallways using some
Spanish words in their conversations or when they see me they greet in Spanish.
Thank you very much for having amazing children. Have a wonderful Winter
Holidays and a Happy New Year! ¡Feliz Navidad y Año Nuevo!
Here is the latest update for Spanish in December.
