you all, and have been learning how to write back and respond en
Espanol! We would like to make our own page to send to you and show
you how we celebrated el Dia de Los Muertos here at Talcott
Mountain Academy! We made our "ofrenda" early in class by setting
our yellow tablecloth, and making our sugar skulls! The sugar
skulls took mucho tiempo! 47. Cross- cultural contrast Bailamos,
comimos, y rompimos una pinata! We played games, ate some tortilla
chips and salsa, and made notes and letters to our loved ones who
passed away! Para nos abuelos, mascotas, y amigos escribimos muchas
notas de amor y cuentos! We gathered on our "afrombra" and told
cuentos de susto, y hablamos de la historia de Dia de Los Muertos!
It was a good time! Gracias! We also were in "disfrasos" and were
in a Halloween "parada"! We have some "retratos" of nosotros here!
We will post them "aqui" so you can see us, and know what we did
for Halloween! Thanks for checking us out! Senorita Peralta

questions: How perfect should a students writing be before
publishing? I do not want to overcorrect and make the student feel
frustated. We practised group editing and still there are spelling,
and grammarmistakes. Is there a way to empower students giving them
tools for self-correction? Maybe, I need to try some of the new
e-tool available like whitesmoke ? 67. Self-correction tool 68.
