Spanish reflection/video 1
In this class we got in partners and practiced the amount of Spanish we have learned together. I think this is a great way for me to practice on my pronunciation and get more familiar with the language. During the video I did forget some things and I got mixed up with the questions. I think I said the words pretty okay for my first video. I hope in the future I will be better with Spanish. Click the button below for my video.

We had to speak for two mins in our Spanish videos this time. I think i did pretty okay with everything but I forgot if I asked a certain question already so I almost repeated it but my good partner helped me out. I think should practice more so I can be better at it.

I choose my partner because we are friends and I know that we work well together since we worked together before. When we were practicing we would always just go over our conversation once by reading it then we would go over it many times without the paper. I think that on a scale of 1-10 of how comfortable I feel with basic conversation I feel a 6 because we have practiced a lot but I still get nervous sometimes because I might mess up. I think I feel strong in pronunciation because I can sound pretty okay if I am trying.
Spanish Prep
Final Spanish Reflection
This semester I think I have come a long way. the greatest way that I have used to help me was practicing with a Spanish speaker. The reason is because it is easier to figure it out based on what they say in Spanish rather than googling it and just memorizing. I encourage others usually by telling them that they are doing great and/or by helping them move through if they are confused so they don’t just stop. My main goal in these conversations was to basically understand what the other person is saying so I can answer correctly and not have everything be confusing. Compared to the first day I feel more comfortable with Spanish because I know how to make a basic sentences and how to have a basic conversation. I think I could have a little conversation with someone I have never met but I feel like I would be very nervous so I would mess up. In Spanish I would like to talk about school and maybe even hobbies. I chose my partner because I know her and it makes me less nervous rather than not really knowing the person and getting nervous. I have watched movies in Spanish but they usually have subtitles so I don't get lost. I have listened to music in Spanish because my dad plays it because he likes it. Outside of school I practice with my dad like I usually say something in Spanish then ask if I said it right or if it means what I thought etc. When we read in class I try to understand it through words that I can make out. The pictures and title also helps. I hope that I continue to learn more Spanish thought high school.
