Students have enjoyed integrating Spanish with the study of ancient civilizations. Preschool and younger kids learned about the cacao tree and chocolate. While middle kids decorated mayan masks. Older kids are busily preparing their crafts for our Latin American market on November 11th. This event is a highlight at Rivendell as students receive ‘pesos’ to shop at the ‘mercado’. It is an opportunity to experience the culture and practice their language skills. Learning about these people groups and their achievements helps to better understand the culture and customs.
