In order to ease into the potential awkwardness of actually speaking a foreign language, the 4/5s are each creating a character puppet that they'll use to speak through in Spanish class. Each student sketched out one or two ideas for their creature. Beginning with a newspaper base, they added strips of paper mache to sculpt the base into the form they have envisioned. Once they capture the form, they'll add features, paint it and add a felt body. Then off to Spanish class where the puppets can help facilitate language acquisition.
Watch the 4/5s introduce their puppets in Spanish!
