Today in class, we watched a short video about making cascarones. We also spent some extra time today talking about Spanish surnames (students were quite interested in this after learning that our artist, Carmen Lomas Garza, has two last names). Parents, you can ask your student to explain it to you, and check out THIS VIDEO for some extra information.
Ask your student:
Words in bold are new this week, others are review.
Ask your student:
- Why do people from Spanish speaking countries have two surnames ("last name" isn't a great term to use, because there are two!) (Their first surname comes from their dad and the second comes from their mom. We had some fun today creating imaginary family trees!)
