We had some special visitors in class last Wednesday. My oldest (of 5 brothers) was visiting from New Mexico so he joined us in for this lesson. His given name is Tomás, but he was happy to use his new stage name: Viejo Lobo - (Old Wolf). Abuela Loba also attended, as did the star guest of the day: Nuestro cachorito Río. - (Our puppy Río). I had promised to bring him before the end of the year and as I suspected he caused quite a commotion. After getting permission from our host teacher, Ms. Courneen, we placed Río on the table and every student got a chance to give him a treat. He was just as excited as his fans, and loved the attention!

Meanwhile, Viejo Lobo y Río were busy setting up the fútbol / golf course out in the field. We ended up with four small goals serving as golf holes, one of which ended up in a sand pit!! After a couple of rounds of fútbol / golf, we split the class in two and set up a sand soccer game. It ended in a tie and, just like in a
World Cup Final, the winner was decided by penalty kicks.
Next Wednesday is our last class and we are planning to have a little celebration during the last 30 minutes of class along with the other groups. Scholars will also be receiving their certificates of attendance. Please join us if you can. There will be drinks and treats as well as birthday candles to celebrate students who were born during summer.
Hasta pronto,
Señor Lobo
