¿Que Cocinaría Che?
For my project, I researched and chose a traditional Cuban food to prepare. I chose a Cuban Avocado Dip. I looked up the recipe and rewrote it completely in Spanish in the Command form,. I then made my dish and presented it during our two-day fiesta in class. My food came out very well and everyone enjoyed it very much. Through the project I learned about Che Guevara and Cuban food.
Las Ramblas de Barcelona
In this project we researched a famous character who was born and/or grew up in a Spanish speaking country. Through our research we created a presentation and a short speech on the biography of our character. I chose Pablo Picasso, a famous painter who influenced art across the globe. For me this project was somewhat helpful for my own Spanish speaking ability. The exhibition, though, was fun and very beneficial for the community.

Cuento de tu niñez
Cuando era niño, yo fui a escalar en las rocas para la primero vez. Yo fui a Sailing Hawks con mi papá. Era camino largo a los rocas. Hacía mucho calor y difícil. Nosotros caminamos y encontramos un grande roca. Pusimos nuestro botas de escalar y empezamos a escalar la roca. Nosotros escalamos muchas horas. Nosotros escalamos sobre muchas rocas. Pasamos un tiempo feliz. En Sailing Hawks no había nadie. Nosotros usamos una cuerda para escalar un grande roca. La escala era de gran dificultad. El sol se bajó y nosotros caminamos de regreso al carro. La escala era muy divertido.
In this project we studied the preterite in order to learn how to write in the past tense in Spanish. Then we wrote an interesting story (in Spanish) about an experience we had when we were little, hence us writing in the past tense. We were required to write a story in 100-150 words that portrayed our full experience. In this case it is very important for us to express ourself using the past tense in Spanish. I would not have been able to write this story without using the preterite and the imperfect tenses. By recalling things that we did in the past, the preterite was extremely helpful.

My Porque Statement
I want to learn Spanish because if I end up traveling to a Spanish speaking country I want to be able to communicate with the people there and be able to interact with the people I want to connect with. This is important to me because when I travel I do not want to be like a lost tourist trying to find their way around some city. Also learning a new language is helpful because it gives intellectual and personal growth, which I definitely adore.
Proyecto de Un Dia
Here is the link to my project: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1K7zZ2cJiRqTvvMOmGap0LoOzk09Sl2TYwCpOUizDDTY/edit?usp=sharing
In this project we had the assignment of writing a fifteen sentence story in Spanish on the day in the life of an animal or a person. For my project I chose to write about a day in the life of a tiger hunting and killing his dinner. In our story we had to incorporate reflexive verbs. Reflexive verbs are not present in the English language and are key part in the Spanish language. Reflexive verbs are used when the subject of the verb is also its object.
