Today was a very fun and exciting day at Spanish camp. The children have mastered almost all of the vocabulary from “La Granja” and are able to ask and answer several questions in Spanish. They learned more about Spain, including the Tomatina (tomato fight) and the Holgueras and even saw some pictures and a video on the computer. We had our own Tomatina outside with water balloons and then built “fallas” with toothpicks and marshmellows for our own Holguera celebration. We all voted on the best “falla”, the others would have been burned in Spain. They enjoyed musical chairs and duel, and listened attentively to “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” in Spanish. We are impressed everyday with how much they are learning and remembering!
