✨ Poncho Project – Spanish 3 Honors ✨ Our Spanish 2H and 3H students recently completed a special project exploring the history and cultural significance of ponchos! 🧵🌎 First, they learned about the origins and traditions behind this iconic garment. Then, they had the opportunity to design and create their own ponchos at home, incorporating symbols and elements that represent what is important to them. 🎨🖌️ To wrap up the project, students presented their ponchos in class, explaining the meaning behind their designs. This project was a wonderful way to connect language learning with creativity and personal expression. It also gave students a chance to collaborate with their families in the process! 💛 Great job to all our students for their hard work and creativity! 👏👏👏
