Folktales for Spanish Students

Dr. Jacobson's Spanish 1-2 students are reading folktales from South America in preparation for identifying character traits as well as comparing and contrasting themes such as loyalty and persistence. Through comprehension activities, students are also preparing to build vocabulary and concepts that will facilitate an analysis of the relevancy of messages presented in the folktales. Spanish grammar lessons included direct object pronouns, stem-changing verbs and an introduction to forms of the past tense.
