Over the course of this project, I have been working really hard on verbs and conjugating them correctly. I feel that this is a very important skill to have especially when I am having a conversation in Spanish. My ability to describe people in Spanish has improved my memorizing descriptive vocabulary. Studying handouts and trying to remember which words are good for describing different aspects of a person. My art is representative of “beautiful work” because I spent hours in photoshop trying to come up with a perfect silhouette of a bird using only words of different sizes. If I was given an opportunity to redo or refine my work I would have done multiple drafts of my letter because I don’t feel as though I did the best that I could possibly do.

El Proyecto de la Biografía is a project in Spanish Two where we were asked to research a person who comes from a native spanish speaking area. We needed to be able to state, as if we were our person, a basic summory of their life. We practived talked in the past tense and deciding when to use preterite and imperfect. While we learned about speaking the language, we also got to learn about cultures that are different than our own and what makes other spanish speaking countries so unique. 

Mi Receta 

This project was a great project to end the school year with. We were required to make our own Spanish inspired recipe and make a cooking video to show how the dish is created. Every step of this project was done in Spanish. Clay and I chose to make fish tacos because we both enjoy them and felt that it was an apropriate dish for this project.
