!Muchas gracias to Mrs. Ribulotta for sharing her love of mate with our Spanish II students! 🧉🇦🇷 Our students learned about the history and cultural significance of this traditional Argentine drink. Each student also went home with a sample from Sra. Bradner to enjoy!
We appreciate this wonderful opportunity to bring Argentine culture into our classroom and make language learning meaningful and engaging. 🌎
