This is my last day at the Mareas Academy before the school has their summer vacations. After their vacations and with the initiation of the next school year, they will be moving to Cantarrana, just down the road from my host families house so that they can have a more suitable and safe space to accommodate all of their students. I visited the new location with the school administrator and helped with some of the preliminary moving. Not only was my work with the 2nd - 6th graders great for the perfection of my Spanish, but I also started to pick up some of the other languages spoken within the school, primarily Portuguese. I have been able to read Portuguese since I started taking Spanish, but having the rarity of being around native speakers allowed me to speak it.
