!Los estudiantes de Ankeny tienen ganas de bailar el flamenco!


!Es mayo 2008!  Learning to speak a foreign language takes about 1000 hours:  you'll get about 125 of those hours this year in your Spanish class.  Learning a language takes TIME, PATIENCE, and WORK!  I know that you can do it, just like you learned to speak English! 

Why take Spanish as an Ankeny student?
 
Here are actual responses from Ankeny students!
 
"It's easier to learn and pronounce than English."
"More than 20,000 latinos in Central Iowa speak Spanish as their first language."
"Traveling to Spanish-speaking locations is fun."
"Dancing salsa is the bomb."
"Every part of the U.S. has a Spanish-speaking population."
"The Spanish teachers 'rock the casbah.'"
"Spanish music is lively and fun."
"I can speak with my friends and my parents have no clue!"
"I like learning Spanish dances."
"I like to listen to Shakira while doing homework."
"Collecting and spending pesos.
"Spanish rolls off the tongue!"
"Earning C's or better earns college credit."
"Hey, you gotta take a class." 
"I like calling my sisters silly names in Spanish."
