Thanks to Paula Vicenzi for filling us in on this great, authentic learning experience, which allowed our students to end the year on an exciting note!
¡Vamos a Margaritas!
As
part of their cultural unit on Mexico and Food, Mrs. Vicenzi's and Mrs.
Roberts' 8th grade Spanish classes went on their annual trip to
Margaritas in Portland. A guided presentation gave students a chance to see Mexico as it is today; its people, tradition and art. Students toured the restaurant to see the folk art and decor which are all hand made in Mexico. After watching a demonstration on how
to make fresh guacamole and salsa casera, students enjoyed the, "all you
can eat taco buffet!" Margaritas also gave each teacher a
piece of authentic Mexican art to be displayed in the Spanish classroom
as a visual reminder of their trip to Margaritas and their Mexico
adventure.
