Student Showcase 2016

Each year my high school does an expo in the spring to highlight what we have done in our classrooms over the school year.  Not every teacher participates but I think this is a great way for the community to see at least a little bit of what happens in our classrooms.  I had 3 exhibits this year, one from each of the first three levels of Spanish.

Spanish III made piñatas earlier in the year (we had an extra week right before Easter break since there had been so few snow days).  They had to pick something that had been on one of our vocabulary lists.  Animals were pretty popular but the fantasy list also had a few representatives.  Plus, crime sneaked in when the group making a wizard decided to change it to a criminal.

A few years ago when we made piñatas I put up a display at the expo that visitors just looked at the creations.  This year I threw in the "Vote for your Favorite" bucket.  We had 75 votes!  Look at the pictures and keep scrolling for the winner :)

Criminal, Cow, Monster, Bear

Owl, Lion (currently upside down), Devil

And the winner is....

The Owl AKA Señora Alas (Mrs. Wings)

That group got about a 1/3 of the votes.  The next two vote-getters were the lion and the cow.

Do you have a favorite?
