56 Muchas gracias, senor, muy bien! The above are very well known words in Spanish. Saying them was one thing but to be able to understand and read them was another pot of beans. The Spanish I class had fun singing songs in class and taking field trips to Tiols Res- taurant. Their hard times were studying verbs and vocabulary wasnlt their favorite. ttSpanish I is not all just fun? described Mrs. Cheryl Catron. The Spanish I class of ten long students spent a period of time learning about Spain and Mexicols most prestiguous sport: Bull fighting. They found out how the bulls were raised and trained for the fights and the people who were involved. At other times they broke into two teams and had races on the board, covering the words in the chapter. Decorating the bulletin boards was another way the class helped out. Every month Mrs. Catron came up with ideas for the bulletin boards and the students put up paper Espahol es Fantaistico and the letters to design the board. The bulletin boards were done in Spanish. ttThereis a really relaxed atmosphere in the class. Since it was all Freshmen except for me, we could joke around and goof off like we had all been friends for a long time. They always teased me about being a ltBigi, Jun- ior. When that got old I became Ester ttel gordoft or Ester ttthe fatlZ quoted Kathleen Griesemer.
