Future Facebook Fiesta Friday Topics:

June 18th – Video week: plan ahead – share video of you having a conversation in Spanish with another English speaker or a native Spanish speaker, or you can video 2 natives having a conversation or you can even find a good “family-friendly” Spanish conversation on YouTube to share – see how brave you are – go for a conversation if you can!

June 25th – Tell about an experience you had in practicing Spanish (this gives you time to build up the courage to have a conversation with a native speaker – they are always super nice to talk to. You can say “Estoy aprendiendo español (I’m learnin Spanish) ¿Puede ayudarme con mi español? (Can you help me with my Spanish?)

July 2nd – Share information about your favorite foods – from the country you live in as well as favorite Latin American or Spain dishes. You can even share a recipe; if you can figure out how to on Facebook (This idea from Facebook Fiesta Friday member Hugh Dalton)
