Exploring Madrid: 9th Graders Bring Literature, History, and Culture to Life

Exploring Madrid: 9th Graders Bring Literature, History, and Culture to Life

Our 9th-grade class returned from an incredible literary and historical trip to Madrid's Siglo de Oro.

Students spent two days immersing themselves in the city's world-renowned art museums, El Prado and Reina Sofía, taking guided walking tours of the city center, and attending theater productions related to their curriculum. During their free time, students enjoyed hanging out in the beautiful Retiro Park.

 

 

This hands-on learning experience was a fantastic way to complement their Spanish and Sociales studies, bringing history and culture to life beyond the classroom. Students also had the chance to immerse themselves in the city's lively atmosphere, which enhanced their understanding of Spain's idiosyncrasy. It was a blast!
