I really try to show them how it is relevant to their lives and do labs/experiential learning things.<br /><br />I remember Latin class. I actually enjoyed it more than Spanish. My latin teacher did use many of those stories - and she was engaging. Spanish was just drill and kill - and it killed me.Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09037544390731217891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7642588922402729816.post-73807221354897423022015-09-09T04:14:02.105-07:002015-09-09T04:14:02.105-07:00This is such a delightful piece :D enjoyable read ...This is such a delightful piece :D enjoyable read :D<br /><br />Lots of love,<br />SanaaSanaa Rizvihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06681404650477409830noreply@blogger.com
