Our students in Spanish II are practicing their speaking skills by pretending to purchase items from a market. Students were required to come up with a list of items that they needed to buy. Students then had to use the correct Spanish words to ask for specific items, question how much something they wanted costs, as well as pay for those items. This was a great way for our students to practice a real life setting that they would have to use their Spanish speaking skills. #LeadOn #orabs #sheldonorabs #spanish #spanishclass #sheldonhighschool
