\"\"<\/a>Lori Nielsen’s Spanish students took a trip to a local Mexican grocery store recently to practice their non-native language.<\/p>\n

“I went to the La Fiesta Mercado with the Spanish class, and we got to see all the different kinds of foods they have,” Sam Elander said. “They have a lot of vegetables and fruits and pastries for sale.”<\/p>\n

Taking a trip helped the students get outside experience in speaking.<\/p>\n

“It was good practice from last year because like, that really \u00a0helped me a lot going last year,” Peria Gipson said. “So when I went this year I was a little bit more comfortable, like asking her the questions. She wasn’t like \u00a0mean or scary or anything, so it was good.”<\/p>\n

Most students made purchases of the unique items in from the store.<\/p>\n

“I actually \u00a0bought a Coke,” Peria Gipson said. “I know it sounds really stupid considering it’s American, but in Mexico there is a different kind of sugar and it tastes extra sweet and that’s good.”<\/p>\n

Some students even had a conversation with the owner in Spanish.<\/p>\n

“I asked how much everything was and how the lady was,” David Rippey said.<\/p>\n
