EXTRA CREDIT

Hola Amigos~

It's been one week of Spanish so far. . . What have you learned?  Write me an inquiry (or question) in Spanish and then how you would respond to that, plus your favorite thing about Spanish class for 3 points extra credit added to your comic strip or 3 punches! 

To post:

Look at the gray bar just below, in bright blue there should be "comment" click on that.  Type in your response, type your name in that same box, in the pull down you can have it say anonymous (you've written your name in the post, so that's fine).  Then click POST COMMENT.  I will get a notification, if your message is school appropriate, I will approve it, and you will then see it appear.

Christmas in Spain

We are getting close to Christmas break and I wanted to give you some highlights of how Spain celebrates Christmas that are different from those traditions we have in the U.S.

1.  Christmas Eve is a night spent usually going to mass, followed by a dinner with the family.
2.  Christmas is less about presents and more a family and religious holiday.
3.  Children receive gifts from the 3 wise men on epiphany, January 6th. (in Puerto Rico and Mexico some children fill shoe boxes w/ grass pulled from the  lawn for the camels and presents are placed in the empty box by the Magi, much like our stockings)

How do you celebrate Christmas?  Is it very different from the "American tradition?"  Would you consider adopting new traditions?
