Tres Leche cake, albóndigas, agua de Jamaica. An array of traditional Hispanic dishes rested on tables in Ms. Andrea Sebenaler’s Spanish 6 classroom today. Students in Spanish 6 brought either a Hispanic drink, side dish, main dish, or dessert from their assigned country to share with the class as part of the La Extravaganza food project.

The two-day project began on Monday when students performed mini-dramas in Spanish. Each group of four chose a Spanish speaking country, created a menu, and performed a mini-drama restaurant scene. Within their mini-dramas, students mentioned the traditional food dishes which they actually prepared and brought to school today.

Spanish 6 is a University of Minnesota (CIS) course that focuses on both culture and grammar at a higher level of comprehension.

“It has been a great day today in Spanish 6 because we have had the opportunity to try a variety of foods from various Hispanic countries,” said Oliver Haeger.
