''The Power of Puppets in Education''

                                  It could be said that puppets are in every culture and in every community around the world. Sometimes they have a religious or ritualistic context. Other times puppets are used for storytelling and entertainment. In regions such as India, Africa and Southeast Asia, puppets and puppeteers generally engage in ceremonies or rites. In Europe it has a more theatrical, or musical context. In the Americas, especially in Mexico, puppetry has existed since pre-Columbian times, and was used to narrate and preserve the memory of daily life. In these early stages puppets were clay dolls articulated directly with the puppeteers hands. In addition to serving as vehicles of oral history, puppets were used to represent religious texts, usually accompanied by a song or dance.

''Spanish and Art''

Image
                                         photo by Carlota Roa  ©        Art is a powerful tool to learn a language through cultural expressions! For more than six consecutive years, Spanish Today has developed courses to harness the pedagogic spark of art. Such fusions of creativity and language have been offered in a variety of institutions such as the Montalvo Art Center in the City of Saratoga. For the summertime, we have curated Spanish courses that aim to encourage and motivate students to converse in Spanish through innovative problem-solving and observation. By engaging in sculpture, paintings, handicrafts, musical performance, and dancing, our students form deep connections between their experiences and their environment. When students participate in what we like to call “transcendent-learning”, they can more easily connect with the target acquisition - in this case the Spanish language. The stimulation of both cerebral hemispheres causes genuine emotions and exalted sensation
