    What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): Dictated sentences pertaining to the Statue of Liberty such as ‘Lady Liberty wears a size 879 shoe!’ Asked each other questions such as “Have you ever seen the Statue of Liberty” to much laughter since the learners had a photocopy of the statue in front of them. It was fun to watch which of the learners caught on to the joke. One learner stared at the copy and said “YES!!!” :) Fun class; one new learner who seemed to enjoy herself.
    * I passes out flyers for alternative classes learners can attend in the summer.

    What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): M. dictated sentences about mothers and families and passed around photos of his own family. Learners were connected to the lesson, wanted to ask questions about our families and reveal things about their own. They also helped each other find success during the sentence dictation and instead of being bored, higher-level learners created their own opportunities to teach those around them. We passed out flyers for alternate classes for learners to take in the summer and they made sure they translated and understood when and where these classes were.

    What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): We did chants about union protest. There were many difficult vocabularies. However, learners were fun and enjoyed to learn because Amanda made chants to be like a song. We did chants as a melody and yelled it out loud. It looked funny but learners seemed to engage with Amanda very well when they could yell along with her.
