SPANISH III HONORS
Day of the Dead Project (Proyecto de Calavera)
In Spanish III, my first project was called the Calavera Box. I worked with my partners Amy Schlanger and Jocelyn Kampa in my group to put this project together. We demonstrated how a teacher at our school would die a horrible mystifying death and how we would write an obituary in both English and Spanish. We got Mrs. Sabataso, who "died" by being taped up to a wall by her students and abandoning her there. A copy of both obituaries can be found below:
10 Things I Learned in Spanish I/II Video Project
To recap the major topics of Spanish I and II, I made a video with group members Austin Rodriguez, Mohn Shwemoe, and Jenny Qi. To begin with we start off with an introduction drawing you, the audience, into "another dimension" to lead to a story about Sesame Street characters and how they engage in Spanish culture and meet the big stars of Sesame Street and have a great time together. Then it leads into vocabulary and grammar concepts that review the major aspects of what we learned from past Spanish classes. Enjoy!

Teen Classified Ad - Ayudante de Biblioteca
For one of my spoken day presentations, I created a classified ad that would appear in a newspaper or flyer to be hung somewhere to advertise the position. It demonstrates the vocabulary we learned during our business and restaurant unit.
Telenovela Project - Sueños de Amor y Mala Suerte
At the end of our junior year, I made a telenovela project with Kylee Hendryx, Vanessa Cadiz, and Daniel Ghebre. A telenovela is essentially a Spanish drama, similar to other international drama genres, such as Korean dramas. The purpose of creating the telenovela was to apply my Spanish-speaking abilities and demonstrate being able to communicate effectively and intuitively. In addition, as I am preparing to enter AP Spanish Lit next year, this project was a good way to apply everything I learned during Spanish 3. The story makes a play on the Disney movie Bedtime Stories, and adds a special Spanish twist to it, featuring even a commercial! Hope you enjoy it!
