What We Learned
The first day of class, Dr. Rood wrote some Spanish sentences on the board and we tried to find out what they mean. It was a very confusing class at first, but when I got to know his objective by doing this, it became much more interesting. We learned how to make paper footballs, how to solve and write a cryptogram. We also played a game of charade, which was very interesting, but amazingly difficult to solve. These activities are not just for fun. They teach us that we do not have just one way of communication; sometimes we have to convey a message that we can not really explain with just word. For example, to teach a friend how to make a paper football, we have to use both verbal and visual demonstrations. What I most enjoyed in this class is making a paper football and playing with my friends in class, as well as outside of class; it was fun.

The Ability to Communicate
Without communication, the ability to learn would be almost impossible. We would not be able to convey our messages to other people, nor can we understand anyone trying to talk to us. In this case what we learn through our lives would be through personal experience, which would not be much without the help of others.
