Immersion
Sidney has been working extra hard on her Spanish in the months preceding our trip. She is in high school Spanish II and has been supplementing with Spanish lessons on Duolingo (where she is also learning German). She has been watching some novelas and as we leave at the end of this month, she has also begun listening to Spanish music channels on Spotify. She decided last night that we need to sharpen our skills, so armed with a pile of sticky notes, began to label the house. What topped the evening off was the Spanish morphing to German text conversation that she had with her grandparents last night. Her dedication is admirable and a bit infectious, I am feeling the urge to brush up on my Spanish. Hmmmm, I wonder what I can get accomplished in the next three weeks?!
