¡Hola chicos y chicas! Welcome to our pre-Zoom Spanish session with yours truly, David, your enthusiastic Spanish teacher. This quick rundown before our Zoom class is designed to get you primed and ready for some language fun. We're diving straight into the essential review of place markers - those nifty little phrases like "en frente de" (in front of) and "al lado de" (next to) that help us navigate spaces in Spanish. We'll zip through a review, then jump into an interactive exercise on room vocabulary, where you'll guess objects in Spanish with your classmates. So, if you're pumped and ready to boost your Spanish skills, hit me up, and let's make learning español a blast! ¡Vamos a empezar! (Let's start!)
