¡Bienvenidos!
Welcome to Señora McNicholas' web page!
It is my goal to prepare our students for today's multicultural society! During Spanish class, I focus on developing the four language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. I also introduce my students to the Hispanic culture, as well as discuss possible career opportunities in the foreign language field.
I truly enjoy teaching Spanish, and working with my students. MY STUDENTS make my job exciting and enjoyable! If you have any questions about the subject matter, please feel free to speak to me. My classroom door is always open!

Feliz Dia de los Muertos! Happy Day of the Dead!
The Day of the Dead, Dia de los Muertos, is a holiday traditionally celebrated primarily in Mexico on November 1 and 2. It is not a sad holiday, but rather a joyful celebration honoring departed loved ones. The multi-day holiday involves family and friends gathering to pay respects and to remember friends and family members who have died. These celebrations can take a humorous tone, as celebrants remember funny events or stories about the deceased family and friends.
Traditions connected with the holiday include honoring the deceased using calaveras and aztec marigold flowers known as cempazúchitl, building home altars called ofrendas with the favorite foods and beverages of the departed, and visiting graves with these items as gifts for the deceased. The celebration is not solely focused on the dead, as it is also common to give gifts to friends such as candy sugar skulls, to share traditional pan de muerto with family and friends.
