A day when the people that you love and who love you come together to celebrate YOU? Maybe you are thinking right away of one of your birthdays. Is it a special birthday, and why? Visualize that day - the food, the music - and especially why that day is important. Raise your hand if you are thinking of sweet sixteen. Raise your hand if you are thinking of turning 18. Raise your hand if you are thinking of confirmation or another special religious day. (pause) I want to look with you now at the special celebration that takes place when a girl turns 15 in many hispanic cultures - la quinceañera! ]]> 2019-08-13 17:26:34 UTC https://padlet.com/nlavalette/backrowgang/wish/374363494 nlavalette https://padlet.com/nlavalette/backrowgang/wish/374407613 History Example]]> 2019-08-13 22:18:59 UTC https://padlet.com/nlavalette/backrowgang/wish/374407613 nlavalette https://padlet.com/nlavalette/backrowgang/wish/374416687 Responses to concerns about lesson planning:
