In my SPAN 201 Intermediate Spanish class we recently wrote children’s books for Spanish speaking students at the local elementary schools of Jefferson Elementary in Winona and Arcadia Elementary in Arcadia, WI.<\/p>\n
Due to the fact that I care a lot about the environment, I chose to write my book about protecting the environment, to teach the kids about its importance. I hope that the kids, although at a young age, will begin to think about their role in keeping the environment healthy, and how important the environment is. Currently, there is a lot at risk with the health of the environment and my hope is that the future generations will care enough to make a change.<\/p>\n
Writing the book has been a rollercoaster. Trying to create a product that would be shared with children was a lot of pressure, and juggling making a good final project with other school work was stressful. The illustrations were especially intimidating because I am horrible at drawing. Yet, holding the finalized, binded copy was a really satisfying feeling. I ended up really impressed with my drawings and story. All the time spent on creating the book turned out to be extremely worth it, and it’s a good feeling knowing it’s going to mean something to kids, and they can use it to learn Spanish at a young age, which is an amazing opportunity for them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
