Spanish Eulogy
This is my Spanish Eulogy and its about my sister who had passed. The mask is colorful which reminds me of her colorful personality. The skull is just 3 colors red, black, and green which has a deeper meaning.

Conversational Powerpoint
The conversational powerpoint was a project that we were assigned to display our knowledge of ser/estar and basic conversation. This project was not as difficult as some of the others. We were able to create conversations about anything that we chose. That is what made this project so much easier than theirs.
Dia de Los Muertas
Hola again fellow classmates. I'm here to offer you another blog post on a project I did in Spanish 2. This was my quarter 1 project named Dia de Los Muertas(meaning day of the dead). What I had to do for this project was to give a brief English summary on who my dead relative was and what he/she liked, what I thought of them as a person, and how they died(optional). Next I had to do a Spanish eulogy on my dead relative and perform it in a video. To me this project was truly amazing because, it got me to understand my family a little more. It also made me realize I'm lucky to be alive.

Día de los Muertos was a benchmark that is all about remembering the dead. We were supposed to honor the dead by making sugar skulls out of them and mask for them. We also wrote a eulogy to commemorate them at heir funeral which is also supposed to be filmed. The person would have had to have been close to us in order for us to do this benchmark effectively.

All My Spanish Concepts:

Children's Book: Marie's casi Primero Día del Tercer Grado By: Alicia Nelson and Alyssa Straface
This Spanish project was my favorite. We had to create a children's book about health, body parts and clothing. We had to have a partner and one person was the writer and the other is the artist. The writer of course did the dialogue and the artist constructed the drawings that went along with the dialogue. What made the project so fun was because I was able to actually do what I wanted to do without any limits except the components we are supposed to include about health, body parts and clothing. That was the best project I did and I was very proud of myself.
Día de los Muertos
The purpose of this project was to celebrate and remember our loved ones. We had to talk about them in English as well as in Spanish. We also had to make a mask and sugar skull that represented them. I enjoyed this project because it made me remember the good times I spent with my loved one.
Isabella Bedelia primer dia de la clases
For this project we had to write a spanish children's book, on a child getting sick at school and then is taken to the hospital or a child wakes up sick and is taken to the hospital then sent to school. Me and my partener choose the first options and I had fun creating the characters in book and being an author of a spanish book.
Children's Book
For Spanish 2, we were instructed to create a children's book, about a child who was either going to the doctors, went to school and became ill, or a child who woke up sick. I don't have any pictures, or a link to post for this project, because it wasn't completed. If this project would have been completed, I believe that it would have been done well. My partner Vernika and I's topic was going to be about a little girl who went to school, and felt ill. I believe that I would have enjoyed doing it.

Ser y Estar
UCLA Interview
For this project, my role is to interview my partner because he decided to come to my school. The interview is in Spanish and contains details about the university and the life of the interviewee. To be specific, concepts included physical descriptions, personality, likes and dislikes of the interviewee, school life, family, shopping, and clothes. All of these concepts were taught to us and we did this project to understand the concepts in depth.
Conversational PowerPoint
For Spanish 2 in quarter 2, we were instructed to work with a partner that Señorita. Moran assigned to us, and create a conversational powerpoint/google slide show covering the 7 topics she gave us. The 7 topics being, Condition v. Characteristics, Location v. Origin, Identification, Time and Date, Time and Date of an Event, Possession and Material, and Opinion. My partner that was assigned to me was Chris. This was my favorite Spanish project to date, because I had fun while doing it. Creating the slides was fun, but recording was stressful because we were trying to find some where to record while not disturbing the report card conferences that were going on. I believe the grade that we received, reflected our honest effort on this project.

Emanuel's Spanish Conversational Project
For this project I showed my understanding on making sentences about identification, time, date, place of event, opinion, and the preposition "de". For each of these categories I wrote a small script. Each of these scripts had a video of me and my partner acting out those scripts. We put a couple pictures that had to do with each of the videos on each slide.
Juanita's Sick Day
This children's book shows the adventure of a young girl named Juanita going to school, getting sick, being sent to the nurse's office, and then finally going home and getting better.
Spanish 2 Dia de los Muertos
This project was about Dia de los Muertos, Day of the Dead. It is designed around remembering the dead. I chose to do my great-great grandmother. I didn't know her personally, but from family members I have heard good things about her, she was an artist and a writer. This has shown in my family the importance of story telling because it has sort of kept her immortalized in the words of my relatives.
Dia de los Muertos
On this project we decorated a mask and a candy skull in remembrance of someone we lost. We also wrote a eulogy about the person we made the skull and mask for.
Reflection
Hello my name is kahsir and today I’m gonna talk about somebody that meant a lot to me. first I would like to say we were not related but he was so close to my family he was called our cousin. Dave is from Philadelphia and I believe he has lived here his whole life. He was our neighbor that is how my family became so close to him. I hung out with younger brother a lot that is how I knew Dave. I would describe him as funny, intelligent, and artistic. Dave meant a lot to me and my family, I looked up towards him as a role model. He was a big part of our lives and now that he is not here it feels weird. I decided to make a sugar skull dedicated to him because he is the only person I really knew who died. Growing up I was not that close with my real family so dave was the only choice I saw. I did not know his favorite colors so I just used the brightest colors I saw. My sugar skull is bright and vibrant and that is how I saw him, a bold person who stood out. Días de los muertos has helped me remember him more vivid like he was here just yesterday. If I celebrate Días de los muertos I believe I would remember dave like he is still here for the rest of my life.

Spanish Children's Book
I thoroughly enjoined doing and creating this project, there was a lot of freedom and personality from me and my partner can be shown. Our story is called "El Mal Doctor". This story translates to the bad/evil doctor that is a huge fear of our main character. The main character is Miguel, his mother just told him about his doctors appointment and he begins to throw a temper-tantrum. Miguel get very tired from being so worked up and takes a nap before his appointment. When Miguel falls asleep, he also falls into a bad dream. This dream is about the doctors office and the doctors visit. Everything is dark and scary, there are snakes, spider webs, crocodiles and sad children everywhere. Miguel is called into the office and everything takes a big turn when the doctor takes out a needle. Just before Miguel is pricked by a needle he wakes up from his bad dream and it is time to go to his actual appointment. Miguel and his mother go to the doctors and everything is different than it was within his dream. There are happy children and beautiful nurses. At the end of his visit he leaves with a tasty lollipop from the friendly Dr. Lopez. El Fin.
