Have you been required to learn Spanish in your college career?  I have not been required to learn Spanish in my college career.  I did take an English Language course last semester but it did not require Spanish to complete any assignments. 
I added a video of Jack Hartmann playing the Spanish alphabet. It is a video I think young children would enjoy. ]]> 2021-09-16 00:56:43 UTC https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744337910 PerlaCrump https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744362886 2021-09-16 01:07:00 UTC https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744362886 PerlaCrump https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744384299 Culture: Japanese.

It is recommended for tourist to wear modest clothing and take a headscarf when visiting Turkey.  There are multiple reasons why Turkish people wear a yashmac or yasmak; they may wear them to protect their head or hair from the weather, for sanitation, fashion, religious significance, modesty or other form of social convention. ]]> 2021-09-16 01:26:32 UTC https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744413209 PerlaCrump https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744433222 Jewish people wear a kippah or yarmulkes. About one-third of Israel's Jewish men wear a kippah, especially the religiously observant.]]> 2021-09-16 01:33:41 UTC https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744433222 PerlaCrump https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744560596 The video has ladies dancing a Phillippine traditional cultural dance known as Binasuan. When I first saw this video, I was amazed at how talented the dancers are to hold cups with liquid in them and are still able to walk, dance, and twirl. I tried dancing with only a cup on top of my head, almost impossible. The cup fell off my head several times. The dancers in the video make it look effortless when in reality it is way too difficult to even put a cup with water on the top of your head without making a mess. I think this dance requires a lot of practice and patience. It was incredible to watch them move their cups and move around as much as they did without tipping their cup over. I was amazed at their performance, but I do not think I could possibly master this dance. Ever. ]]> 2021-09-16 02:20:21 UTC https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744560596 PerlaCrump https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744590798 The sabar dance is a traditional dance performed in Senegal/The Gambia. This dance reminds me of a dance we practice in Mexico. "Zapateo" is very similiar to this. The dancer moves their feet to the rhythm of the music. My daughter and I enjoyed imitating the ladies on the video. It was a complete workout. We moved up and down and side to side. We hoped and laughed like the people in the video. Even though this is not my culture, I love the rhythm of traditional dances performed by African American's. I love how joyful they look dancing to the music. I enjoyed learning about the sabar dance. ]]> 2021-09-16 02:31:01 UTC https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744590798 PerlaCrump https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744643988 Title of the article: Sera's Story Growing Poor in San Francisco
My Reaction: After reading this article and watching the video on Sera's story I realized how very blessed my children and I are. I would consider myself and average American now. But when I was growing up wiht my five sister and a single mom we lived in a small mobile home where we experienced much of what Sera experiences in the room where she is living with her mom and sister. Our home was very small and when we took baths our ceiling and walls fogged up and caused our ceiling to be covered in mildew. My mother didn't have the money to repair our home, so we did what we did to clean up the mildew the best we could. Although that was not the worst of our worries, we were still happy to have a home and loved being united the way Sera seems to be with her family. It is very sad to see how there are still people on the streets. I learned that I am not as strong as I think I am. I loved Sera's optimistic personality. ]]> 2021-09-16 02:50:44 UTC https://padlet.com/PerlaCrump/tfo3d2fr0q653nag/wish/1744643988
