Los cuentos infantiles
In the project, Los Cuentos Infantiles, we were expected to make a children's book based off of our knowledge of the spanish we already knew. Each story was different and constructed differently between each person. The requirements for the project was to have at least 2 sentences per page and to have the book completely covered, meaning no white page showing. Another extremely important part about these books was to make it simple, and age appropriate. Overall, Los Cuentos Infantiles was an extremely fun project.
This was definitely one of my favorite projects in spanish. I faced many problems but also many victories. One of my problems, was keeping the story simple and using only the vocabulary I learned on my own. I used google translate, which caused my grade to go down quite a lot. Although that happened, my book came out perfect and I look at it as beautiful work due to all of the refinement that led up to it. There is absolutely nothing I would change about this project.

Día de los muertos
For this project, we made skeletons that reflected ourselves. Along with that, we had a paragraph describing ourselves. For example, we explained our names, where we're from, our relatives, our hobbies, our favorite music, what we like to watch, what we like to read, adjectives that describe ourselves, things that are meaningful to us, and some thing we want in our life.

Reflection:
a.) Something that I learned about Dia De Los Muertos, was that the Mexican Culture considers it a positive ceremony.
b.) My skeleton reflected myself because I applied "bicycle eyes" to represent my love for biking, and a mountain scape headband to represent where I live and my passion for skiing.
c.) Something I am proud of in this project, is my artistic creativity on my skull. I tied in my creativity when I made the eyes the shape of a bike.
d.) Something difficult that I came across, was verbally speaking the spanish. (MY VIDEO) I had a tough time with my accent.
e.) Someting I would do differently next time, is make my video better quality. Tie in pictures and maybe even music.
