La sorpresa del lunes (Novice)
Continuing the tradition from first trimester, each student was assigned at least one week to put together a sorpresa, or surprise, for the class. This surprise could be almost anything related to the Spanish-speaking world such as a song or meme in Spanish, a fun fact about a Spanish-speaking country, a short video, etc. Then, on the Monday of that week, they would present the surprise to the class, so that we could all learn a little something new about the Spanish-speaking world, or have a laugh at a funny meme! What’s your favorite “sorpresa”?
Rose: I really like being able to see people's personal interests through the sopresa de lunes. It is also fun to pick something out to show your class!
Eleanor: I loved learning about little things in Spanish - speaking culture! Even if they’re very small, they’re very interesting.
